Hi,

The mod_perl port has an INSTALL script that checks the existence of
apxs but apache13 is only a BUILD_DEPENDS so the package dependency
doesn't get propagated into mod_perl package.

Among other things, this makes the building of other packages that
depend on mod_perl fail.

Is it ok to add RUN_DEPENDS to apache13 too?  (If you are doing this
intentionally to give the user the freedom to choose which apache
port/package to use, I think you probably shouldn't be too strict in
the INSTALL script either, but the apxs command is run in pkg/INSTALL
so it makes is a little hard to take out the check.)
