If you install mod_perl as a dynamic module it works fine. However there
is the 'head' problem noted if you are installing modules via CPAN as they
will sometimes pull in modules they need. So you need to be sure head
doesn't get overwritten at some point.
I have a copy of head named head.bin which I keep around just in case
something installs HEAD in it's place.
Otherwise you should be able to build it just fine.
