While we're on the subject, this has another problem: $WITH_APXS is
unset if we're building without APXS, even if we are building an apache
that supports it. Should that be fixed?

whoops, this doesn't apply ontop of randy's patch that's in now. i'd be
happy to commit this in the morning if you want to make one against cvs.

this should work now - maybe Randy could check it just to make sure the
results are good on windows. looks fine to me, though...

you want me to insert some pod for Apache::MyConfig here too?

well, it's not much but I wasn't sure if you wanted a huge pod in
Makefile.PL anyway...

for the life of me I can't figure out how to add MyConfig.pm to MAN3POD -
explicity adding it truncates everything else, but manifypods() doesn't see
it on its own..,

for what it's worth:
