hmm, called before, or the dso reload behavior is different so we don't
notice with dso?  I wasn't aware that the order of things actually changed
with dso vs static.

hmm, can you expand on this a bit more.  clearly mod_perl isn't the only one
who needs to link both statically and dynamically, so is it that mod_perl is
doing something other core modules (like, say, dav) are not?

I'd be happy to shepherd whatever needs to be done with httpd, I just need
to understand it well enough to defend it or offer alternatives when people
over there say httpd is all well and fine.  so, more specific code pointers
would be much appreciated.
