Found a solution worth writing about. I went through the perl
configuration interactively, specifying the following non-defaults:
- compile perl as shared
- use gcc, not cc, as the compiler
- provide -fPIC to the compiler
After this, everything worked like a charm!

Apologies if I'm posting in the wrong place, but here goes:

Apache compiles fine. When compiling mod_perl, I execute
"/usr/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs"
and then make, and get:
