I think Apophis may have been responsible for constructing the replicators. While we all know the android 'Reese' was directly responsible for the creations of the replicators, we never learned much about the one who created Reese. Given how technologically advanced she was, only a genius could have possibly created the android. It's possible that the android was a prototype for a new kind of army Apophis was building, an android that failed to live up to expectations.
The reason why I think it was Apophis and not any of the other goa'uld is because of Apophisis lack of surprise when the replicators arrive. He doesn't fear them or react in an unreasonable manner (compared to Baal, who panicked). It's almost as if he has seen them before. And there aren't many other technologically proficient species in the Milky Way, so it had to be a goa'uld. Apophis also knew that his personal shield would protect him from the replicators, and didn't even bother trying to fight them himself. He was probably waiting for his ship to land when it was controlled by replicators so he could simply step out and get another ship. The ship was destroyed though, so we'll never know for sure if that was his plan.
