ok, this patch seems to be a bit better. if I remove Apache.pm from perl's
site_lib I get this in my error log instead:
Apache.pm failed to load! (Can't locate Apache.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/perl/perl-5.8.6/lib/5.8.6/i686-linux-thread-multi, ...) at (eval 3) line 3.
).
I'll commit it early next week unless anyone gripes.
