it is needed for running apache with mpm-module-worker instead of

declared as stable.
But apache mpm-prefork starts with php compiled treadsafe apache
mpm-worker doesn't start with php compiled none-treadsafe
You can run PHP with apache2-mpm-worker with mod_fcgid and php5-cgi or
php5-fpm.
This is what Debian Wheezy's README file for php says:
Using PHP 5 with threaded webservers (e.g. apache2-mpm-worker)

After much back-and-forth with upstream (and even building our
packages thread-safe for a while), we're currently admitting defeat
on that front, and are NOT building any thread-safe versions of PHP
5 for any webservers. Our recommendation is that, if you need to use
a threaded webserver, you should use php5-fpm and interface to your
webserver with FastCGI.
I think Mageia is hurting itself by enabling too experimental features.
Another example is the uas kernel module, of which I saw a complaint
recently in this mailing list. This module is known to be buggy, and
disabled in Debian.
