On one hand, maybe this would be useful for things that e.g. offer a mod_perl
interface, and would like to depend on Whatever::Apache -- they could recommend
it, but if it didn't install (because you don't have mod_perl), no big deal.

On the other hand, would that be better done in Makefile.PL/Build.PL?

hdp.
