Apologies if you already know this, or if it is not relevant to your particular 
case.
Many Linux distributions (*) already provide pre-packaged binaries for Apache httpd, Tomcat and mod_jk. There is a lot of debate always about whether one should use these pre-packaged versions, or download the sources and build the packages oneself, and I don't want to enter into that discussion here. They are generally not the latest cutting-edge version, but they generally work, individually and together, and are easier to install and maintain if you have a lot of systems to manage. One inconvenient is that they tend to distribute the files in not-always-obvious locations, so that when you have a problem, it makes it harder for people here to help, or to locate things and apply individual corrections. Basically thus, it is your choice, according to your particular situation it may make things easier or not.

(*) Unfortunately, one which does not seem to do so anymore is RedHat RHEL.

Why do you think the ASF stopped building binaries for *NIX systems?
It's for the same reason that you don't want to build all of those
combinations...

You can have your build process grab the latest version of mod_jk
source and build it locally if you want.

Has apache completely stopped distributing linux binaries since
1.2.32 ?

Yes.

Or will they be available later ?

No.
