In general - all of the previous threads on this topic have either gone
off-list or were never resolved.
I spent several weeks trying various configurations w/ mod_perl-1.24 &
apache 1.3.12 on an AIX 4.3.3 box running perl 5.00503 and using xlc as my
compiler.
I was never able to successfully compile a DSO mod_perl.
However, most of the versions have a patch that needs to be applied to the
dynamic loader code in perl. perl needs then to be recompiled before
building mod_perl.
even w/ these patches I was unable to build it successfully. I tried to
use perl 5.6 as well - but ran into more problems (unrelated?) then I had
w/ 5.00503.
I wish I could offer you some secret key - but for me it has been a
constant source of frustration.
