FWIW, I'm working on this bug now; as far as I can see, all I need is that
#257506 gets fixed.

I'm a bit amused that you created this kind of hack instead of simply running

  ./buildconf

which fixes the entire problem (ie.: there was already a workaround for the
apxs2 problem in env/Makefile.am, you just need to re-run automake and
friends to make it propagate to the Makefiles).
