I did a test compile of mod_perl as a DSO, and ran into a problem with another module I use (mod_dav). It requires EXPAT to be defined in the ap_auto_config.h file. However, I found this in the mod_perl Makefile.PL:
# Do not disable the rule EXPAT for Stronghold, since this # rule is not implementated yet and breaks the configure process. if(is_ssl() !~ /stronghold/i) { $cmd .= " --disable-rule=EXPAT"; }
So, I'm not certain about how to rectify this with mod_dav.
That comment is not very clear. Should it be disabled only for SSL servers, but not stronghold? That change was made at:
revision 1.157 date: 2000/04/21 05:56:19; author: dougm; state: Exp; lines: +2 -1 --disable-rule=EXPAT is passed to Apache's configure to avoid XML::Parser conflicts PR: Obtained from: Submitted by: Reviewed by:
I suggest that you search the mailing list archives for --disable-rule=EXPAT around this date, find the discussion leading to this change and this will clarify thinigs.
If this change was made only for ssl servers, this might work:

- if(is_ssl() !~ /stronghold/i) {
+ my $is_ssl = is_ssl();
+ if($is_ssl && $is_ssl !~ /stronghold/i) {
$cmd .= " --disable-rule=EXPAT";
}But I'm not sure if that's the case.
