Actually, the latest Apache and Perl compile straight out of the box. I even
managed to persuade mod_perl to build and install (as a static module. I'm
having odd problems with shared libraries).

Before you build apache, do an httpd -l on the current httpd and make sure
you build a new one with the same modules enabled. You'll also need to
download mod_auth_pam if you want to make the new Apache have all the stuff
the old one has.

As for the kernel, I'd love to upgrade to 2.4, but since I don't have
physical access to the system, I'll leave that for now ;-)
