Hi,

I'm trying to add mod_perl to my Apache server. I've got

Solaris 10
Apache 2.2.2
mod_perl 2.0.2

I'm using gcc 3.4.3, supplied by Sun, perl 5.8.4, supplied by Sun. I'm using the perlgcc utility which is claimed to enable gcc compiled modules, despite perl being compiled using Sun compilers. Apache wouldn't compile with Sun compiler....

mod_perl compiles fine,

perlgcc Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=/export/chippewa/disk1/apache-2.2.2
make

'make test' fails to start the server with a syntax error in the configuration file extra.conf, which is automatically generated. I'm winging it and have done a 'make install', which didn't complain, and the server starts up OK, but I'd be a lot happier if I could run the mod_perl tests. Here's the output I get from 'make test':

cd "src/modules/perl" && make
