+* As mike chamberlain told me over irc, apr-ext/perlio was faling for
+ him because of the modperl_perl_gensym not being resolved in
+ APR/PerlIO.so. I didn't see that error since on linux by default
+ symbols resolution is lazy and since that part of the api wasn't
+ tested I did see the problem. On MacOSX the loading is RTLD_NOW
+ (non-lazy) so it detects any missing symbols problems immediately.

+ Luckily DynaLoader allows us to force the non-lazy mode by setting
+ an env var: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1. We need to force this env variable on
+ when building with MP_MAINTAINER=1. I suppose that it should be
+ added to the autogenerated t/TEST and t/SMOKE. and to
+ t/conf/modperl_extra.pl ($ENV{PERL_DL_NONLAZY}=1) so it affects the
+ server-side as well as the client-side (normally env var aren't
+ propogated to the server).
