Is this still correct?

http://se.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.apache2.php

Or is it recommendable to start using apache 2 in production?

The warning there is for the threaded mpms, not Apache2 in general.  And
yes, we still suggest you use the prefork mpm with Apache2.

Reading that page clearly leads me to the following conclusion:

We do not recommend using a threaded MPM in production with Apache2.
Use the prefork MPM instead, or use Apache1. For information on why,
read the related FAQ entry on using Apache2 with a threaded MPM

Apache 2 is fine. You can even use threaded MPMs, just use FastCGI.
Personally, I found it to work better than Apache 1.3 with mod_php,
but that's just me...
