14 simple. Maybe you installed apache with 'emerge --oneshot' which
15 doesn't modify the world file. Maybe apache was installed as a
16 dependency of something else, and that something else has since got

21 I cannot go to school today"
22 Said little Peggy Ann McKay.
23 "I have the measles and the mumps,
24 A gash, a rash and purple bumps.
25 My mouth is wet, my throat is dry.
26 I'm going blind in my right eye.
27 My tonsils are as big as rocks,
28 I've counted sixteen chicken pox
29 And there's one more-that's seventeen,
30 And don't you think my face looks green?
31 My leg is cut, my eyes are blue
32 It might be instamatic flu.
33 I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke,
34 I'm sure that my left leg is broke
35 My hip hurts when I move my chin,
36 My belly button's caving in,
37 My back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained,
38 My 'pendix pains each time it rains.
39 My toes is cold, my toes are numb,
40 I have a sliver in my thumb.
41 My neck is stiff, my voice is weak,
42 I hardly whisper when I speak.
43 My tongue is filling up my mouth,
44 I think my hair is falling out.
45 My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight,
46 My temperature is one-o-eight.
47 My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear,
48 There's a hole inside my ear.
49 I have a hangnail, and my heart is - What?
50 What's that? What's that you say?
51 You say today is .......Saturday?
52 Goodbye, I'm going out to play!"
