Well, that's exactly what SVN is very useful for - just check in apache
configs as part of the project, each config nicely contained in a
pre-configured <VirtualHost>, like this:

Listen 127.0.0.1:8001
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8001>

  ServerName Project1
  ...
</VirtualHost>

Then the next project has
Listen 127.0.0.1:8002
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8002>

  ServerName Project2
  ...
</VirtualHost>

To me it feels like getting along a little longer before things finally
break for one reason or another.
