>Description:
Once perl-5.8.3 is built with pkgsrc from 14th, february 2004, I also 
built apache-1.3.29 and ap-perl-1.25nb1.

I'm unable to make work the mod_perl module (ap-perl) under Apache: 

- on NetBSD-1.6ZL, httpd attempts to start but fails without noticing anything,

- on Solaris 8/sparc, httpd starts but mod_perl is unusable: perl script produces nothing else than logs in apache error_log file.

>How-To-Repeat:

on NetBSD-1.6ZL/i386: 
build/install apache-1.3.29, perl-5.8.3, ap-perl-1.25nb1 packages, 
adds the following lines in the apache config. file (httpd.conf), 
then try to start Apache: it will fail.

  ... [httpd.conf content]
  LoadModule perl_module /usr/pkg/lib/httpd/mod_perl.so
  PerlModule Apache::Registry

On Solaris 8/sparc: 
the apache serveur starts but no HTML output is produced while using 
mod_perl on perl scripts.


>Fix:
I've upgraded my www/ap-perl to version 1.29, and everything seems to 
be OK on my both env (NetBSD-1.6ZL, Solaris 8).

about the package definition, just Makefile and distinfo files must be changed, other files of the package definitions comes from the 1.25nb1 (even patch files).
