Well, the suexec mechanism seems to be working OK:
# ps -ef | grep httpd
nobody 28220 28219 0 14:38:25 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nobody 28225 28219 0 14:38:26 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
root 28219 1 0 14:38:25 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nobody 28221 28219 0 14:38:26 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nobody 28224 28219 0 14:38:26 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
root 28229 28212 0 14:38:29 pts/10 0:00 grep httpd
nobody 28223 28219 0 14:38:26 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nobody 28222 28219 0 14:38:26 ? 0:00
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
Should I need to chown my httpd to nobody to make Apache::Test work
(circumventing suexec)?
Note: chowning the entire apache tree to nobody:nobody still causes the
"httpd (<path>) does not exist" error in mod_perl 2.
In case I failed to mention this before:

Most likely problem here is that httpd does exist at that patch, but after
dropping privileges to nobody, it can't see it anymore.
Have you made sure that user 'nobody' can successfully stat/exec
/usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd ? (and the directories
leading to there)

Well, apxs is where I said it was (obviously), and httpd definately
exists at: /usr/local/stow/apache-2.0.54/apache2/bin/httpd
