For those who may be bitten by the same bug, the reason is that
the new modsecurity package doesn't enable the required mod_unique_id
module in Apache during the installation. You can find evidence of this
in the Apache error.log if you have logging set high enough, but it
won't prevent Apache from starting or modsecurity from *appearing* to
work.
Use a2enmod to enable unique_id and restart Apache. :)
