You know I haven't tried that for a while.  I do know that RC5 was just 
added to the ports
but roled back by the maintainer. (see ports@xxxxxxx.xxx)

I assume the port correctly built and installed (/usr/ports/www/apache2)

You might try just building Apache2+mp2RC5 from source using the 
currently released tarballs.
It should be seamless.  If you have specific compile/configure 
questions, ask me off list and I'll send you my ./configure lines and 
the like.
