Recent breakage: apache-1.3.9 + mod_perl-1.21 (APXS)
Hi folks,

I'm moving the FreeBSD port for mod_perl from an httpd binary
replacement to a DSO addition using apxs.

I'm not sure what changed between 2 weeks ago and now, but I'm finding I
have to patch the apaci/configure file as follows:

Without this patch, perl_util.c blows up with a parsing error because
DEFAULT_PATH is taken as bare text without quotes. :-(

Any ideas?

Ciao,
Sheldon.
