You're best off choosing A or B, IMHO.

A -> Upgrade server to a supported version of FreeBSD.
B -> Install software "Manually" from source.

In the case of B, it would mean for example, doing a pkg_delete on your apache setup, fetching the current sources from the ASF and doing the usual configure / gmake dance that port automates. On the upside you can often find fixes in category/portname/files/ as patch files, not that they will always work on such an old FreeBSD release.
