/usr/local/apache doesn't exist (and build::apxs won't use that branch of
the code, unless (IS_MOD_PERL_BUILD)
<digression>
does $Apache::Build::APXS map to Apache::Build::apxs?
I would have thought that the Apache::TestConfig::which('apxs') would work
once the frozen config file had been written

just to make sure that extra cruft isn't messing me up, I moved my directory
to a new name, copied from CVS a fresh copy. I'll build and see if I
duplicate the problem with a 'virgin clean' source directory copy.
if it still fails, I add your suggestion to the config options file. Don't
know why it starts to break now..
