>Description:
At present, the apache13 port has 2 incompatibilities with the mod_perl
port:

1.	mod_perl under -CURRENT complains that Perl was built with
	largefile support, but apache wasn't.  Part of this patch
	provides LARGEFILES option for compiling apache.

2.	It includes expat-lite, which prevents XML::Parser from being
	used inside mod_perl.  This is a real pain in the bum.  :-)
	Apache 1.3.22 specifically included support for using a system
	copy of expat in place of its own builtin version, in order to
	reduce incompatibilities.  This patch allows apache to look in
	/usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib to find expat.

	Possibly, it should be another option, WITH_EXPAT, which also
	uses a LIB_DEPEND?  I'm not sure.

>How-To-Repeat:

1.	Install mod_perl on a -CURRENT machine and see the warning.

2.	Inside mod_perl, write a script that uses XML::Parser and watch
	the core dumps fly!
>Fix:

Here's my patch.  It may be a little simplistic, however...
