why Apache::TestMB? It should be ModPerl::MB when it'll appear, right?

why the fallback for Module::Build? Shouldn't it just die then?

what if none exists, should Module::Install be used to require Module::Build?

when will that be released? I guess I need to require that version then.

So the only remaining part is to override Module::Build to place modules 
under Apache2/ if mp2 was built this way. Could you post an override that 
unconditionally overrides that and I'll adjust it to figure it out 
dynamically?

Thanks David.
