Answer 1

Except Stephen Farmers very good answer. I also had to add one more module.

LoadModule slotmem_shm_module libexec/apache2/mod_slotmem_shm.so

Otherwise apaches log was filled with messages like:

[proxy_balancer:emerg] [pid 25593] AH01177: Failed to lookup provider 'shm' for 'slotmem': is mod_slotmem_shm loaded??

and it would not start.

Works fine now.
