Probably not httpd. At least Suse has not. Instead they configure and build a prefork httpd and a worker httpd one by one and then merge the result. The apache API does not depend on the chosen MPM. So, almost certainly you can build modules (including mod_perl) with one MPM and use it with another. Usually I build mod_perl against a httpd with worker MPM and TEST is with both worker and prefork. So far I have never found something that went bad only because of the other MPM.
