If you build apache with
./configure \ --prefix=/kinnetics/component/httpd
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/apache-kinnetics-$USER
then when you try compiling mod_perl you get:
perl Makefile.PL \ MP_AP_PREFIX=/tmp/apache-kinnetics-$USER/kinnetics/component/httpd \ LIB=/tmp/apache-kinnetics-$USER/kinnetics/component/httpd/site_perl \ PREFIX=/tmp
************* WARNING *************
!!! '/tmp/apache-kinnetics-darwin/kinnetics/component/httpd/bin/apxs -q INCLUDEDIR' failed:
!!! cannot open /kinnetics/component/httpd/build/config_vars.mk: No such file or directory at /tmp/apache-kinnetics-darwin/kinnetics/component/httpd/bin/apxs line 256.
Note that this works just fine under mod_perl 1.99_10-dev.
So this issue has not been resolved, right? I think we could handle that on the modperl side. If MP_AP_PREFIX is passed, we should make sure that APXS is not used, even if it has been found. How does that sound? just to test my suggestion delete /tmp/apache-kinnetics-darwin/kinnetics/component/httpd/bin/apxs so it won't find it and try again.
also why don't point MP_AP_PREFIX at the apache source? why do you point it to the destination dir? this could be your problem.
