You keep saying this, but I'd like to dispute it a bit :-).  I'd say
that it *can* be quick and simple, but that it also can be
problematic.  That qualification you add about having all the pieces
in place is a big one, and it sometimes takes a bit of work to reach
that point -- getting everything you need, all the right versions,
installing them properly, etc..

For example, I like to think I have some idea about this stuff :-),
but in fact I was unable to successfully build mod_jk.so
(coincidentally, it was for AIX, and I agree building stuff for AIX
tends to be more problematic than for other platforms, but then again,
I have successfully built lots of other stuff on AIX).  (In the end, I
let our sysadmins do it, because they have machines set up explictly
for this kind of stuff, and have lots of experience building Apache
and other open source stuff.)
