----------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenBSD 2.9 DSO Builds but won't start, with segfaults in the
Perl lexer. I wasn't even able to start mp1-dso with
the customly built perl (tried 5.6.1 .. 5.9.0)
-- the segfault is again in lexer. It seems that
the standard OpenBSD perl package has been heavily
patched, when the core system perl 5.6.0 package was
built, since I can run 'make test' on mp1-dso, but not
with a customly built 5.6.0 with the same
options. Since 2.9 is no longer supported by OpenBSD,
there is no 5.6.1 or higher to try, so at this moment
we simply give up on 2.9. We think that the static mp2
build should work just fine (once it's available).
AIX 3.3 DSO Works with -berok to ignore linking errors (symbol
resolution). Should replace -berok with a proper
symbol resolution at linking time, but I had not much
success with using this approach (dlopen fails).
AIX 4.3.3 DSO reported to work with mod_perl_1.99_12 and
Apache 2.0.48/prefork mpm
but doesn't start with worker:

FreeBSD ?? DSO Works with non-threaded perl (4.8-RELEASE-5.2-RELEASE, 6.0-CURRENT)
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=106399870822612&w=2
The following combo is known to work:

FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE
gcc 3.4.2
perl 5.8.7 WITH ithreads
httpd 2.0.54 apr IS THREADED (worker mpm)
mod_perl2.0.1

Static works OK!
* Does not compile with bleedperl (5.9.x) due to modperl_error.c and Perl_croak()
on FreeBSD. This is a PERL bug, but p5p and myself, and not sure where the problem is yet.
* gcc 4.x and higher compiles break under -Werror
[pgollucci volunteers]
* AAA changes in httpd break httpd 2.3.x+ (svn trunk) builds terribly on all platforms.
* Need to cleanup functions only needed for certain build flavors
(perlio/threads/etc) out of lib/ModPerl/WrapXS.pm:$ithread_exports
and use the newer, simpler #ifdef technique (see modperl_io_apache_init
for an example)
* we should stop generating xs/apache_*, at least for a reason that
it's incomplete and will be never complete as we don't keep up with
changes with ap_/apr_ namespace. Also we don't have the logic to
handle cases where functions aren't available on certain
platforms. Importing these unavailable functions may cause loading
problems on some platforms (aix?). If developers need to import
symbols from ap_/apr_ namespace they should use .exp files installed
by httpd/apr/aprutil.
* we have a dependency check problem when xs/*/*.h use code from
xs/modperl_xs*.h, when the latter change 'make' won't rebuild the
dependent files
* Testing:
Need to put Philippe's smoking test into the core
-- shouldn't forget to test with perlio enabled and disabled
* source_scan won't create Wrap/Foo/Bar.xs if
xs/maps/modperl_functions.map defines only a boot section:
MODULE=APR::IO PACKAGE=APR::IO BOOT=1
unless there is at least one function added to the .map file
