Hi, It seems that precompile hardcodes or picks up 'nobody' from the
default Apache config. I would like to use the values from
--server-uid and --server-gid to chown the prefix/backhand
directory. This allows me to setup/install mod_backhand without having
to become root

Also precompile doesn't chmod 755 ./configure in the Apache dir after
it finishes. The enclosed patch seems to do the right thing

Patch against mod_backhand 1.20

Regards, Yusuf
