http://www.covalent.net/resource/docs/Apache1.3to2.0MigrationWhitePaper.pdf 


gives some general background -- not a 'blow-by-blow' description of
individual directives.

prefork will most probably be your best bet
(not because you are running Solaris but because you probably would like to
have the option of running php as a module with extensions which may not be
thread-safe)

for more background see:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/prefork.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/worker.html
and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mpm_common.html#acceptmutex
