Hi Graham,

As much distracting as the debate is, the build of mod_wsgi actually isn't 
without event.  I have to go in and modify the Makefile.
I change -lpython3.4 to -lpython3

And then the make succeeds.  Otherwise, "make" fails as follows:

$ make | tee make5.log
...
/usr/lib64/apr-1/build/libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -std=gnu99 
-Wl,-z,relro,-z,now   -o mod_wsgi.la  -rpath /usr/lib64/httpd/modules 
-module -avoid-version    mod_wsgi.lo -L/usr/lib64 
-L/usr/lib64/python3.4/config -lpython3.4 -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpython3.4
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
apxs:Error: Command failed with rc=65536

Could that be the problem?

Thanks,

              -Shanrti
