I tried to take this for a spin, because I had a bad fix (1 step forward, 10 steps back!) fix for an issue you later wrote a test for.
But the httpd.conf template doesn't load any modules, so my (typical) DSO config didn't work at all. Did I do something wrong? Our Apache::Test harness copies the loadmodules in the installed config file as a bootstrap for the new config IIUC.
