Of course, that's because they're too lazy to make it work under PHP 5, let alone be secure in the first place.
Of cause this has nothing to do with Apache2 issues, but phpbb like a lot of very popular packages does have a very restricted range of extensions that it will work with, many by design, others for much the same reason that support for Apache2/PHP is not as good - The old system works so why change it.
Security is a very good reason for changing, and I know that is not relevant in this discussion, but a better culture *OF* updating systems where potential risks are fixed should be the norm, rather than "It works leave it alone" ;)
( Why do I have so much trouble getting connections to the php news groups. I've had to post these messages three or four time before they go through, and getting new messages from the list is very hit and miss :( )
