FWIW, it's relatively trival to instrument the httpd conf files to start
only a selected set of virtual hosts. Depending on the number of hosts,
it might be easier to define the hosts not the be started.
The basic logic in this case would be to define the hosts not to start in
a environment variable. Let's say
set HOSTS_NOT_TO_START=,foobar,
Each vitual host definition would be wrapped in and <If ...> directive
