Well, if ModPerl::MM does the right thing, a developer will not even 
need to know where it is located. So probably leaving it as it's now 
is fine. The only misleading part is that MODPERL_LIB_LOCATION points 
to the build dir, so it should probably be renamed to reflect that. 


I'm not sure that's the *only* mis-leading part, but, as you say, if it 
all works then it shouldn't really matter too much.
What other misleading parts are we talking about?

The main thing is to get mod_perl.lib installed in the first place under 
mp1.
I remember someone wanted to port ModPerl::MM to mp1, if that happens, than 
it'd become a non-issue as well ;)
