There exists no httpd2, just httpd2-naat (Network Appliance
Administration Tool on Mandrake).
There exist:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=apache2
httpd-2.0.x (fedora, asp linux, netwinder)
apache2 (suse, mandrake, Falsehope)
apache used just for apache1 only
So I would say "apache2" or "httpd", preferring "apache2" because it's
clearer and nearer.

--prefix=/opt/apache2

You usually do run both at once, for testing purposes.
But it's easy for the user to change that in the conf file.
