You are using a different compiler to compile mod_perl and perl itself,
this is not going to work. The perl build procedure was done using the
IBM C compiler and it adds -bE:/path/to/perl.exp to the command line to
build perl, but this compiler option means something completely
different to gcc, causing the strange error. If you want to use gcc to
build mod_perl, you will also have to use gcc to build perl itself.
