I always build my servers with their own copy of perl in a directory 
such as:
/usr/local/httpd_20050419

I build a fresh perl and apache in that directory, and get everything 
working.  My particular builds include a separate front end with SSL, 
and two backends, one each of mod_perl and mod_php.  I then use 
mod_rewrite to send requests to the correct back end.

After I have everything working, I then stop and unlink the 
existing/running apache and then link
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_front /usr/local/apache_front
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_perl /usr/local/apache_perl
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_php /usr/local/apache_php
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/perl/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl58xx

I can always go back to my previous set-up if I have problems.
