That would be my first and safest thought.  Note that only a single
depth backup is made so make your own.

Since the tool is python it is not insane to copy or modify the
python.

A minor bit of grep and find and I see:
     ## File generated automatically by genClass.py
     ## Do not edit this file directly.
     ....
    ./ApacheBase.py:   rmd5 = hexstr (md5 (open ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf', 'r').read ()).digest())
    ./ApacheBase.py:     os.remove ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.bak')
    ./ApacheBase.py:     os.rename ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf', '/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.bak')
    ./ApacheBase.py:     open ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf', 'w').write (result)

There is no magic $HTTPDCONF but it looks very possible in an open source world to change...
Just do a bit of digging... and do not ignore the pile of handy documents.
