I just tried to install libapreq2 (v2-2.03-dev) from CPAN. It was a
bit of a saga. I was missing a couple of prerequisites. Then it
couldn't find Apache2.pm - I made a link to sort that - then I ran
make test and there were errors. At that point I halted. There where
numerous errors in the log:

I can probably get by without libapreq2 and use the $r-the_request();
for now.
Cheers.
