Make sure that you apply the following for AIX < 4.2.1, you will get
strange errors otherwise:

There was some discussion about this on the new-httpd mailing list, and
the consensus I think was to remove the reference to that symbol from
mod_perl. I would believe if you use the current CVS sources of
mod_perl then you do not see a reference to the symbol any more.
Otherwise you can temporarily patch Apache like this:
