Neil,
Embperl needs only to have read access the Apache header files and must be
able to start the Apache binary, to check with whichs options it is
compiled.
The header files are normaly installed by mod_perl somewhere under the Perl
directory (do a find -name httpd.conf). Take this directory as source when
Makefile.PL asks. Additionaly Makefile.PL will ask for the Apache binary if
it cannot be automaticly found.
Hope this helps
Gerald
