It's probably easier to do a tarball install of perl somewhere
under /usr/local (probably the default) and use it with fastcgi.
It's been years since I last needed multiple perl installs but
I don't think it was difficult at all.  Using it with fastcgi
should avoid the need to rebuild apache and mod_perl too.
