I was lucky enough to have built everything before, on Linux, and to
have the
hints and tips from the stepwise and Mac OS Hints crew ...

I'm pretty sure that this is OS X specific. The dyld issue with
multiple definitions is a known issue (see the libtool man page). Apache
contains a patch which installs error handlers for multiple definitions,
which ignores them (although its not clear to me if this code actually
get compiled on OS X, there's a change note for Apache that suggests its
no longer required).

I've searched the mod_perl (and other) archive(s) pretty extensively. Try
google with 'Mac OS X dyld multiple definitions" to see some posts. Lots
of people
seem to have hit the dyld problem with one thing or another (python is
another one),
but no-one's posted any good info on fixes for it.

I hope so. Right now it seems like no-one is running
apache/mod_perl/mod_php with Apache::DBI
(if you are, and can get it to work, *please* let me know how you did
it) ...
