A fix for a broken mod_perl in 10.3.8

After upgrading to 10.3.8, my own compiled mod_perl stopped working. If you compiled your own as well, and find it broken, here's how I got mine working again:


$ sudo cpan
cpan> install Bundle::Apache
cpan> exit
$ cd /usr/local/src 
$ sudo wget http://perl.apache.org/dist/mod_perl-1.0-current.tar.gz 
$ sudo gunzip -c mod_perl-1.0-current.tar.gz | sudo tar xvf - 
$ sudo perl Makefile.PL USE_APXS=1 WITH_APXS=/usr/sbin/apxs \
 EVERYTHING=1 NO_HTTPD=1 
$ sudo make 
$ sudo make install 
$ sudo apachectl restart 
Enjoy!

[robg adds: I can't confirm the problem or the fix, as I know nothing about Perl. If someone else can comment, please do so...]
