Hello Stas,
Thank you for your suggestion. I read through the thread as you suggested,
and the underlying fault seems to be permissions related. I built mod_perl
under my own login, which is an ADS network account, and noticed that the
UID is a very large integer. I somehow thought that this could be contributing
to the problem and so decided to create a local user account on my MacOSX system.
This account lists much lower integers for UID and GID in the shell.
I rebuilt mod_perl under this new, local account and then ran 'make test'.
It all ran sensationally well this time and all the tests passed.
Thank you for the pointer that planted the seed.
Best Regards,
Ron.

The source distribution for mod_perl (2.0.0-RC4) compiled cleanly without any problems. However, when I attempt to run "make test", the test Apache server fails to start and consequently aborts. I am running "make test" under my login, and I have full write permissions in /usr/local/src which is where mod_perl and httpd are built. I'm just wondering if anyone else has attempted this on a MacOSX platform and experienced similar behaviour ? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.[Tue Mar 08 11:54:39 2005] [emerg] (13)Permission denied: Couldn't create accept lock
Ron, please take a look at this thread:

Cory didn't followup on his proposal.
