But the errors may still exist; it's good to correct, or at least fully 
understand, any `make test` errors you come across.

This page has the correct fix for the DBD::Mysql problem:

  <http://www.mail-archive.com/macosx%40perl.org/msg05736.html>;

The fix, in full, is as follows:

  We recently discovered the DBD::mysql problem as well. The patch is to 
  edit /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm, 
  replacing:

    ld='MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'

  with

    ld='env MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'

  Unfortunately, this change is too late to get into Panther.

The instructions at <http://www.truerwords.net/3556>; patch the symptom, 
but not the underlying problem; other module instals could have the same 
problem. It's better to address what's really causing this error.


(Not that this is a mod_perl issue either, but oh well.)
