That's fine. The second part was more for my own edification.

Yeah, that makes sense now. In the case of static mod_perl builds, is
there any reason to run make && make install while getting apache source
files ready? It seems like I could just do the configure part then let
mod_perl build the server from there.

This was my experience and I faintly remembered you suggesting that
Apache::Test should not be run as root so surmised that that was my
problem. Right now, I do not have time to track down this error. If I
can repeat it at a later time, I will file a proper bug report.
