By the way, could you explain why using apachectl --- which is the way you
are supposed to manage it directly --- is somehow wrong (not to mention
different from systems like Linux or *BSD or Solaris where you control it
directly with apachectl)? I think earlier versions *did* require a wrapper
script --- but that likely was a workaround for a bug, and is fixed now.
