Sounds like a good time to read 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/developer/new_api_2_4.html and to play 
with the 2.0.9-rc2 (they discussed releasing it today...)

Beyond that, I don't know that anyone will have any specific input 
without seeing the module and what errors you are having with 
2.4/mp2.0.9rc1 or rc2.
