My apache2.conf, which seems to handle the global server settings on the 
newest version of apache2 in Fink, has

ServerRoot "/sw/etc/apache2"

And poking around on my system, /sw/var/www/apache2-default contains 
similar files to /Library/WebServer/Documents, so I'd suggest using it 
as the Document path.
