gotcha. so it's 5.6.0... however i'm still really curious about whether
mod_perl 'builds in' the interpreter when you build apache, or is it when
you >run< apache?
what i'm actually trying to do is get mod_perl to use a different version
of perl also installed on my system, 5.6.1, so as to settle some problems
within mason causing the httpd child processes to segfault.
