Hmm. No, I don't think -i really needed. In ./run script there about 30
variables, but most of them bash-related and I don't think some of them may
affect apache execution.

But... it just ease to use -i when starting apache than think 'is it safe'
about every from these 30 variables, check apache's documentation about used
variables, etc. Many years ago when I was a newbie sysadmin I have some
problems with apache started in unclean environment, so I always use -i
from that time... just for the case. That's called experience. ;-)
