ok.  so it looks like the way to handle this is via the new APR_VERSION and
APU_VERSION queries.  this is in apxs:

  my $apr_version = get_vars("APR_VERSION");
  $apr_version =~ s/(\d+)\.(\d).(\d)/$1/;
  my $apr_config="$apr_bindir/apr-$apr_version-config";

so, in our code we would query apxs a second time via `apxs -q APR_VERSION`
and if it succeeds then we insert the major number into the
apr-$major-config, otherwise we assume apr-config.

The problem is that at the moment, we don't always have apxs. How are we going to handle that when apxs is not available?


rather than changing this now we can probably just work it into the planned
refactoring.

post refactoring. I'm going to do it now.

Later on (after 2.0) is released we may provide a separate package which
will be buildable w/o mod_perl. Let's deal with that when we will want
to do that.


less work is cool by me :)
