There are various flaws in the build, report them to d...@httpd or collect them in bugzilla reports, and mind the existing reports which might already solve your problem. Since there is no MinGW port maintainer, this often falls apart, sorry there is nothing we can do if a platform's community does not participate with or engage the developers with patches. > Also if you'd try to compile mod_perl it will try to run "./configure" > on the Apache sources but that will fail on Win32 because 1. there is no > Configure in the win32 Apache sources and 2.

You don't use the -win32-src package because that package is for building on the Microsoft Windows platform. If you want to build for a faux-unix platform you would obtain the usual tarball.
