I'm sorry you couldn't get nginx working. In case you end up going with
apache, here's my config:

$ emerge -p apache php

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

I have no idea if the prefork MPM is the "best" one for this application,
but it seems to work fine for me. The speed is fast enough I guess.
