That's fine; I just didn't see any discussion on sfwnv-discuss about it,
and am not subscribed to webstack-discuss, so I didn't see that.  My
concern is that any RPATHs embedded in the modules could be specific to the
workspace they were built in.  I took a look at the build 78 mod_perl.so,
and it doesn't seem to link against any apache libraries, so perhaps this
isn't a problem, or at least isn't a problem yet.

But using apxs to pass -I and -L flags that point to the build workspace is
great.
