Well, in my case, I always do

$> perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=$BASE/mod_perl/1.27/

For example. That way all mod_perl stuff is in its own directory. Not in
the perl tree, not in the apache tree (except for libperl.so).

But I seriously have no idea what's the most common thing for users to
do.

If anywhere, I think mod_perl.is better of in apache_dir.
