The "ap-modsecure" package doesn't support Apache 2.4.x because
"mod_secure" version 1.x doesn't compile with that version of Apache.
As a result it automatically pulls in apache-2.2.27 as a dependence
because apache-2.4.3nb1 cannot be used. But you cannot install those
two apache packages at the same time.

You have to use (or build) the "ap-modsecure2" package which supports
both Apache 2.2.x and 2.4.x.

P.S. The mailing list "pkgsrc-users%NetBSD.org@localhost" might be more
     appropriate for this discussion.
