New Section in httpd.conf apache 2.4.17-3

This may have appeared earlier, but I've only just caught it and am trying to clean up all my .pacnew configuration files.

There's a new section at line 167 of httpd.conf:

<IfModule !mpm_prefork_module>
        #LoadModule cgid_module modules/mod_cgid.so
</IfModule>
<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
        #LoadModule cgi_module modules/mod_cgi.so
</IfModule>

I'm assuming this may affect my use of

LoadModule mpm_prefork_module modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so

at line 156.

Do I need to uncomment any of these IfModule sections? I've searched pretty extensively and am simply asking to be pointed to a discussion about this new section.

IfModule sections were added in this upstream commit https://github.com/apache/httpd/commit/ … 3fe1f25a18

If you want to use any of the modules then "yes" you need to uncomment it.

Got it, I'm not using CGI so can ignore.
