apache dying unless I rebuild mod_perl before starting it

[carthagtuek]

Hi
I updated to 5.8.0 by replacing the apple distro (which now that I think back was pretty silly, but then again, I can't stand having multiple instances of the same thing about). Then I of course had to compile mod_perl for it, so I went and got the newest one, and compiled that (unable to find any info about how to actually do that without also recompiling apache - why's that? It turned out that I could just do make install and start apache).
However, each time I restart apache, it dies on me (the crash log will follow). I have positively identified that it's a problem with mod_perl, as it works fine if I comment it out of httpd.conf. If I rebuild mod_perl (make, make install) before starting apache, it will work again (most of the time, I'm unable to identify why it won't always work right off. Sometimes it takes 2 or more rebuilds, without making any other changes).
Now that's tedious, so I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong?
