Subversion: The new-generation CVS (DevChannel)
I run a Subversion hosting service (wush.net) and there is no way I could offer anything beyond the most trivial of setups without using Apache as the backend. SSH may be the easiest for one developer, but the gap quickly closes as you do more.
Even small companies benefit from the Apache setup. A lot of the small organizations like to use WebDAV for checkouts (and checkins using autoversioning) from anywhere, something you cannot do without Apache. In addition, many people like to use viewsvn, which does not cooperate easily with user-owned repositories since it will be running as www.
There are lots of other setups that you just can't do without using Apache and not just esoteric ones.
