    diff -u -N /dev/null some_file
means that some_file is a new file.

Thanks, Stas - I've just committed this, and put in some
comments in the top-level Makefile.PL to that effect.

I'll send a message to the mod_perl list next week
asking someone on AIX to try.

Thanks :) You and Joe made it pretty straightforward,
