and if this helps, I couldnt get it to work unless I had mod_perl build apache:


{sys1:/u/pratoa/src/build/mod_perl-stat/mod_perl-1.26} cat buildme
perl Makefile.PL APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.20/src DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 APACI_ARGS="`cat ../apache_1.3.20/aa`"


and the apaci args I used are:

    --prefix=/usr/local/apache  --sysconfdir=/var/apache/conf --logfiledir=/var/apache/logs --datadir=/var/apache --localstatedir=/var/apache --with-layout=Apache --with-perl=/usr/local/bin/perl --enable-rule=SHARED_CORE --enable-module=so --enable-module=env --enable-module=proxy --enable-module=log_config --enable-module=log_agent --enable-module=log_referer --enable-module=mime_magic --enable-module=mime --enable-module=negotiation --enable-module=status --enable-module=info --enable-module=include --enable-module=autoindex --enable-module=dir --enable-module=cgi --enable-module=asis --enable-module=imap --enable-module=actions --enable-module=userdir --enable-module=alias --enable-module=rewrite --enable-module=access --enable-module=auth --enable-module=usertrack --enable-module=setenvif

This built apache with dso support, but builds mod_perl static into apache:

} /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -l | grep perl
  mod_perl.c


I ran make and make install from the mod_perl directory.
