Looks like a bug in perl. But it's hard to tell.
Matisse, please try to run it under the perl debugger to see where exactly it crashes. that'd be:
perl -d Makefile.PL MP_APXS=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs PREFIX=/usr/local
OK, so i ran it under the debugger, and started stepping through, typing
n
at each debugger prompt, and eventually got bored and decided to let it run so i typed:
r
at the damn thing seemed to work - ran to the end without an error,
So I did a make clean and tried again, and it worked again (under the debugger),
so I did another make clean and ran the configuration without the debugger and it worked.
Heh, your system got scared when it saw that you know how to use the debugger :)
Then make worked, and make test fails with:

Please take a look at Apache-Test/lib/Apache/TestConfig.pm, it has a function that untaints the PATH:
# Temporarily untaint PATH sub untaint_path { my $path = shift; ($path) = ( $path =~ /(.*)/ ); # win32 uses ';' for a path separator, assume others use ':' my $sep = WIN32 ? ';' : ':'; # -T disallows relative and empty directories in the PATH return join $sep, grep !/^(\.|$)/, split /$sep/, $path; }
try to see why it failed to do the job, by dumping the values of $path before and after it (at around line 1059).
If you don't figure it out post it here.
May be on Mac you have a different path separator?
