Subject: anybody having problems with --with-module?
Reply-to: trawickj@bellsouth.net

Perhaps this sounds crazy, but it seems that ap_config_auto.h is hosed
when I use --with-module=xxx.  The hosed ap_config_auto.h is almost
the same as ap_config_auto.h.in: 

[trawick@k5 src]$ diff include/ap_config_auto.h.in include/ap_config_auto.h

The bogus ap_config_auto.h seems to be related to a sed error message,
shown below.

I run configure like this:

./configure --with-debug --enable-module=cgi --prefix=/tmp/apache-2.0  --with-mpm=prefork --enable-module=status --with-module=/dl/apache/mod_charset_lite.c

Output from configure telling me that mod_charset_lite was added...

...
checking whether to enable mod_setenvif... yes
checking whether to enable mod_echo... yes
checking for extra modules... /dl/apache/mod_charset_lite.c     mod_charset_lite.c
 
added /dl/apache/mod_charset_lite.c
checking for target platform... unix
checking for setsid... (cached) yes 
...

See this bad output showing a sed error:

My first wild goose chase was thinking it had something to do with
using EXTRA_CFLAGS...  Now I find that simply toggling
--with-module=/whatever toggles the bad behavior (sed error + bogus
ap_config_auto.h).  More debugging required...
