>Description:
When specifying the location of the apache source distribution (to statically
link mod_jserv into apache) you can't use a relative path, i.e,
./configure --with-apache-src=../apache_1.3.9
will lead to compile-time errors because Makefiles in subdirectories also
think that the sources are in ../apache_1.3.9, when they're in
../../apache_1.3.9.
The same is true of --with-JSDK.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
I would guess that automake should take care of this, but there
may be an incorrect specification of a variable or some such. I haven't
examined it in depth.
mod_perl does it correctly, but they're using the Makefile.PL goop.
