I never compile anything as DSO. There are weird interactions in mod_perl when it's loaded as a DSO, interactions that you do NOT see until you're doing fancy-schmancy stuff. This is why Red Hat gets away with building their Apache with mod_perl as a DSO. When you get to the types of applications we're using (where Apache bloats to an amazing 20-30MB per httpd) the DSO method just doesn't cut it: weird segmentation faults at the most inopportune times.
