Hi,
I've got to say that I have seen quite a few very heavily loaded sites using Apache 2 pre-fork and PHP. Although we have had a few bugs in the past few months in the Apache 2 SAPI I think it's quite stable today, and some of those bugs wouldn't have affected many people. It's definitely getting a lot of testing and many Linux distros are bundling Apache 2 and PHP.
Personally, I think we can drop the experimental from Apache 2 pre-fork+PHP and have a warning about using the other MPMs.
I don't think we have to officially recommend any one version of Apache (we can say it works with both). Personally, I do still prefer Apache 1.3.x but the main reason is because I'm used to it and can't be bothered to move, not because I think Apache 2 is not stable.
The warning and FAQ entry was written quite a while ago. I have updated it now to just talk about threading issues and that people should stick to the prefork MPM, at least on Unix systems.
