I'm not sure if you can - but it probably would not matter since most of the changes between versions should not effect you. About all you can do is insure you document this build, save your configuration files before hand, insure you read and understand the differences between the versions (you didn't state what version you are at and going to) ( see the Apache upgrade information this one is 1.3 to 2.0 ). The one thing you have to insure is that you can successfully backout of the upgrade so insure your backups are good before changing. Warn your clients that the upgrade is needed (due to whatever reasons - if security, then that's a very good reason) and have their input into the change. Let them know there may be problems - and don't worry

Yes, there is a way to know how apache was compiled and/or what modules are loaded. I have done this before, when upgrading apache to support new functionality like cURL.
Offhand, I don't recall all the ways to do this, but phpinfo.php certainly returns a lot of useful apache info, for example:
Also, I recall checking the apache distribution Makefile at one point in time. I do recall that I found many sites on the net that discuss this because this is a common issue for many people.

Hi I run FEDORA CORE 4 and I have been asked to upgrade the apache to the latest version--this machine is using 2.0.54 Apache which is really OLD.

Hello,
I am using Redhat Linux Enterprise 4 AS.
To upgrade NFS, I had to browse the internet and finally I got the latest rpm https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2005-727.html
