Apache "upgrade outdated" overwrites index.html

I'm not certain if this is "another" re-post, I just noticed my earlier post on this subject bounced because I used the wrong account to post from.

After updating mac ports
(sudo port selfupdate)

I ran "sudo port upgrade outdated".

One of the first items updated was Apache2.

Everything went fine except....

     The update overwrote "/opt/local/apache2/htdocs/index.html"

not nice.

Easily recovered from, but completely unexpected.
