Suppose I have a server with two different perl 5.8 installations in two differen paths (necessary for a variety of legacy reasons) and now have to rebuild an old mod_perl Apache to compile in a module. But whenever I go to rebuild it, it picks the wrong installation of perl to build against, and hence the wrong @INC, and hence nothing works when I try to launch Apache. Anyone know where this can possibly be set? I don’t see any options in Makefile.PL that can say “hey, use this perl installation”, and it seems like this must happen to other people — so what’s the answer?
(no, the original Apache was compiled without mod_so, so I can’t just load the module dynamically. Grr.)
