I've installed APC on my Gentoo LAMP server (Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2.13) and it's running fine (I see it in phpinfo()), but it's not actually doing any caching. Looking at apc.php, I can see that only 1.7% of its memory allocation is being used, which is one file of ~430kb. I'm running a CMS on the server (concrete5) which has hundreds of PHP files, so I'd expect cache utilisation to be a lot higher. Obviously it's being ignored, for some reason.
The relevant settings in php.ini are:
[apc]
apc.enabled = 1
apc.shm_size = 32
Other than that it's vanilla, as far as I know.
If it helps, here's the output of httpd -M:
