But wouldn't build depends go into ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache and do a make
install ? If someone had made modifications to their webserver and then
made mod_perl, they'd end up with an httpd binary containing just mod_perl
and not their previous configured modules.
Do we have to admit that the existing ports system doesn't lend itself to
people who stray from the baseline ports ?
