The page on the mod_perl site about "what to do before submitting a problem 
report" suggested trying the current build from the location I used, as a data 
point for the overall report.  So I complied with those instructions.  If some 
other source is better, perhaps the web page in question wants editing.

"PL_markstack_ptr" is in the error message that occurred.  Perhaps it's no 
longer exported, or global'ed, or whatever the right term is nowadays?

It has been years since I compiled or assembled anything by hand, but I do go 
back in the software field to 1963, when such things were sometimes still done. 
 All of several set of instructions I have read, as to how to build mod-perl, 
have recommended the apxs method.

I have never had anything to do with the ports facility, and have built all of 
our site's software from source for years.  The build sequences used for Aapche 
2.2.11, perl 5.8.9, and mod-perl 2.0.4 have all been used on previous occasions 
with full success.  The big change is building 2.2.11 for the event MPM.

The Perl5.8.9 in question has worked very well with the previous prefork Apache 
2.2.10 and a mod-perl built against it.  A "clean tree" approach is complicated 
by the fact the tree has essential modules in it from my internet hosting 
provider (IHP), mostly in the vendor-perl branch but perhaps in other branches 
as well.

My IHP provides a large number of .so's in the include directory, and I just 
let the mod-perl 2.0.4 that I built exist next to the 2.0.3 from my IHP's 
original setup.  This has never caused any problems in the past.  (httpd.conf 
calls out the 2.0.4.so.)

But on your advice I will rename the 2.0.3 with an extra ".hide" after the 
".so", and retry the thing as soon as I get back to my development machine next 
Monday.

FWIW I'm startled by the "2.000005" but I assume that's because the last thing 
built was the _20081223052020 on the recommendations of the mod_perl web site.

There is great value to me in having a single perl that is used for all 
applications, rather than a "my perl" and "their perl" and "the perl used by 
that other gang over there".  For example, commonality of use of Berkeley DBs 
by perl programs from various sources discourages having multiple Perl binaries 
in use.  (Older perl's are still around for reference but nothing uses them on 
our site.)
