Apache2 is less mature and not nearly as well-tested as Apache1.  If you
run a threaded MPM then all bets are off.  The thread safety status of
most extensions and 3rd-party libraries are unknown.  Threading problems 
tend to only show up under load and are nearly impossible to track down.  
So although everything may appear to work in initial testing, once your 
site starts getting hit it may fail in weird and wonderful ways.

You can run Apache2 in prefork mode to avoid the threading issues, but if 
you are going to do that I don't see why you would run Apache2.  Stick 
with the well-tested Apache1.
