Ok, we're in 67 of apachectl ....
The next thing is: 'if /usr/sbin/apache'

Hmm, this looks more like a message from apache starting up.

Haven't done perl in a while, but this looks _awfully_ close to a 
perl error message :-/ Let's test.
 
 $ perl -e '/usr/sbin'
  Bareword found where operator expected at -e line 1, near "/usr/sbin"
        (Missing operator before bin?)
        
Hmm, something seems to feed '/usr/sbin' to a perl interpreter. Do you
by any chance have mod_perl installed and maybe a 'PerlRequire' that loads
the wrong file?
