You're problem is that you load a mod_bandwidth.so (which was build
against an Apache without EAPI) into an Apache with EAPI. Just grab the
mod_bandwidth.c from this URL, run "apxs -c mod_bandwidth.c" (where
"apxs" is the one from the Apache installation which includes EAPI!) and
use the resulting mod_bandwidth.so instead.
