I just tried my usual deep update.
This time, it fails since both apr-1.2.8 and 1.2.9 packages are pulled in.

Indeed, apache pulls in the last apr package (currently 1.2.9) and apr-util (currently 1.2.8-r1), which in turn pulls in an apr with the same version (~apr-${PV}, that is to say 1.2.8).
My workaround is to mask the last apr adding to /etc/portage/package.mask the following line
Code:
>=dev-libs/apr-1.2.9


Please consider to make apache ebuild depend only on apr-util (hoping that the latter pulls in the correct version of apr), or to replace the apr-util dependency on ~dev-libs/apr-${PV} with >=dev-libs/apr-${PV} (and hoping apr are compatible with older versions). Or to manage to make apr and apr-util package be published together.
