The permissions problems don't appear to be with the ExtUtils directory. It's
trying to mkdir /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/auto/Apache/include.
Somewhere among those directories you don't have permission.
And, I misspoke before about PREFIX. First, PREFIX doesn't do everything
correctly. You need to use 'LIB=/tmp/foo/bar INSTALLMAN3DIR=/tmp/foo/bar/man'.
Second, PREFIX, LIB or whatever for mod_perl needs to be added to 'perl
Makefile.PL' as so:
perl Makefile.PL <whatever mod_perl/apache options you're setting>
LIB=/tmp/foo/bar INSTALLMAN3DIR=/tmp/foo/bar/man

Lisa: Valhalla is where vikings go when they die.
