I am running Apache 1.3 in a FreeBSD jail which works as expected.
Next I added in mod_perl 1.0 by installing, adding the entry to the
httpd.conf file to load dynamically and copy across the libraries to the
jail.
I also copied the usr/bin/perl file and the directories under perl5 to
the jail, however apache will no longer start as it is displaying an
error as follows:

the Perl binary isn't relocatable (at least up to 5.10) so I don't think that you can just copy the binary, and the libraries and it will just work. I'm not too familiar with how bsd jails work, but you might want to try downloading perl and compiling from source within the jail, and doing the same for mod_perl and Apache.

Does free bsd have a decent virtual machine that you could use instead of a jail? Then you would be able to avoid this problem. Chroot jails are old and busted, virtualization is the new hotness, at least that's what I've heard.
