I'm surprised the Dries RPM wouldn't have the right dependencies - are you
installing via rpm or via yum?

Indeed. :-( As others have said, RedHat has dropped the ball a bit on this
one.

I've got RPMs available here:

  http://www.openfusion.com.au/mrepo/centos4-i386/
  http://www.openfusion.com.au/mrepo/centos4-x86_64/

for mod_perl 2.0.3 and libapreq 2.0.8 that should get you up and running.
I'm using them on several production sites, so I believe they're reasonably
solid. I don't have Mason packaged, however - I prefer to install more 
complex perl modules from cpan.

Cheers,
Gavin
