You could at least test for the existence of /var/lock/apache2 and
create it only if it's missing. If /var/lock/apache2 already exists just
leave it alone and do not change its ownership.

If the initscript does not unconditionally change the permissions on
/var/lock/apache2 then I'm fine with a comment in apache.conf.

OTOH it could be nice to have an "apachectl dump" command that dumps
the parsed apache configuration so scripting would be easier...
