	This is a new feature in MacPorts 1.5.1 to detect violations of the  
pre-established hierarchy that governs the ${prefix} tree, so as to  
keep a sense of order when installing software. In order to minimize  
conflicts with the bundled Apache, Apache 2 installs its entire world  
onto its own prefix within MacPorts' ${prefix}, ${prefix}/apache2/ 
{bin,lib,include,<etc>}, so that its files are not readily found by a  
default configured shell; this setup violates the default hierarchy  
and thus produces the error you saw when upgrading to MacPorts 1.5.1.  
I just added and committed workaround to the Portfile to indicate the  
violation is intended in this case, "destroot.violate_mtree yes".  
Please re-sync your tree in about half an hour from this posting and  
try installing again, report back to me if you still experiencing the  
same problem.

	Thanks for the feedback! Regards,...
