That's much better, Andrew.

http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html#The_All_In_One_Way
That builds a static Apache/mod_perl. So obviously modperl has no interest 
telling Apache to build DSO support. What LoadModule are you expecting to 
call if there are no dynamic modules?

I suspect you have httpd.conf from a previously build Apache which had DSO 
support and the new build doesn't overwrite that file. Nuke the old 
httpd.conf, run 'make install' and you should be fine.

If you still want to pass extra args use APACI_ARGS
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/install.html#APACI_ARGS

perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.33/src APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/sbin 
DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1  APACI_ARGS="--enable-module=so"
