I've always found this complicated and compile module out = of the tree.

Maybe a better way to drop modules into the tree could = be created?
Then extra modules could be downloaded and dropped in.

Maybe a page = on httpd.a.o where you can download the tar's to drop in?

They don't seem to require much maintenance and they don't eat sign= ificant
space in the distribution.
