hello, the cause of the problem was the "Listen" directive in autogenerated
httpd.conf that is incompatible with IPv6. the Apache-Test/ToDo file
mentions this problem and there is a patch available. but the fix is not yet
in the mod_perl2 distribution apparently...
tests ran ok, except for one of modperl/request_rec_tie_api.t tests. i will
try to figure out what happened now.
