Circular dependency: www/apache22 => devel/apr => www/apache22

Is anyone else having trouble with building Apache 2.2 in ports with USE_APACHE=2.2+ set in /etc/make.conf and with the "WITH_APR_FROM_PORTS" option set for building Apache 2.2?

If APR depends on APACHE, but enabling WITH_APR_FROM_PORTS in APACHE creates a circular dependency, why does that option even exist? So of course I removed that option and Apache builds fine without using APR from ports.

Puzzled at why such an option exists,

If I remove USE_APACHE then by default, Apache 1.x will be built and installed. I don't want Apache 1.x on my system.
 
If I read /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.apache.mk correctly USE_APACHE is depricated.

Code:
APACHE_PORT=www/apache22

Thanks, SirDice!

It's useful tidbits like that that can turn out to be very helpful. That's exactly what I needed to know. :)
