I'm not sure, I did notice all the mpm packages were removed in the 2.4 update.  Could be a temporary thing to get it to build, or it could be 
a permanent change since we're apparently using Fedora as upstream for our apache package now instead of Mandriva.

Let me read your mind as to why you're asking this, however.  apache-mod_php requires apache-mpm and you're wondering what to do about that.  
That require is actually incorrect, even on Mageia 2, and I wish I had caught this earlier.  The require should now just be on apache, and I'll 
have to make the same change in Mageia 2 next time we issue a security update for php.  See https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6534 for 
some background.  Basically this is a result of the way we reorganized the requires of the packages within the apache spec before Mageia 2.
