What means "use apxs as usual to create dso modules" ?

I didn't find any module for apache in OpenPKG.
Can I build just the modules from the apache package ?

I realy haven't worried about what all makes part of the apache sites I
installed, so now I don't realy know what to choose when building from source ;-(
