I always build my servers with their own copy of perl in a directory such as:because I had to blow away my installation of mp1 to get my mp2 apps to work.

I build a fresh perl and apache in that directory, and get everything working. My particular builds include a separate front end with SSL, and two backends, one each of mod_perl and mod_php. I then use mod_rewrite to send requests to the correct back end.
After I have everything working, I then stop and unlink the existing/running apache and then link
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_front /usr/local/apache_front
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_perl /usr/local/apache_perl
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/apache_php /usr/local/apache_php
ln -s /usr/local/httpd_20050419/perl/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl58xx
I can always go back to my previous set-up if I have problems.
