I disagree. libexecdir is for "executables" that shouldn't be run by
user. Apache modules are not "executables" there are rather DSO's.
Another reason is that all modules are in /usr/lib/httpd/modules, so
that would be a non-standard location.

As a side note, I believe that svn instructions should also contain
instructions to use those modules for setting up svn over http:// but
that's not very important.
