Question: For mod_wsgi/mod_python Can we do something like this (note:
I don't know what the real apache syntax would be or if it's quite
possible):

<IfNotModule mod_python.c>
LoadModule mod_wsgi.so
</IfNotModule>

Note that this can still cause breakage if apache parses mod_python's
LoadModule after mod_wsgi's though.
