Ralf, this seems to be a quite common problem (at least for those of us on 
FreeBSD).  Adding modules to Apache forces one out of the ports system either 
because the combined port doesn't exist, or the seperate ports are "mildly" 
incompatable (missing or differring config items, conflicting patches, etc).  
Is it possible that there exits a mod_* port template for FreeBSD that one can 
use to create a coherent combined port from the base apache port?  My last 
experience building Apache, mod_ssl, mod_php3, mod_frontpage, mod_perl insures 
that my next experience will not be very soon :)  Perhaps you have overcome 
this using an approach that includes procedures obvious to you but not so 
obvious for those of us trying to catch up with your release stream :)

My apologies for off topic whinging in advance and many thanks of course,

Rick Saltzman
