Indeed, the Debian Jessie repos lists apache2 (2.4.10-10) <
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/apache2 >;
however, the current HTTPD (from where debian Apache2 derives) is at
2.4.16 < http://httpd.apache.org/ >

If for whatever reason you don't want to build HTTPD 2.4.16 for
Jessie, I would suggest to use the Debian Stretch Apache2 repo <
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/apache2  > in a test instance to
find out if your seg fault issue disappears.

Good luck!


Best Professional Regards.
