ah, I knew there was something else I was supposed to test :)
ok, I just tried it out as
$ perl Makefile.PL && make && make test
and it balked. no problem, the Makefile.PL just needs some tweaking.
and, as it turns out, I spent the morning doing the same for
Apache-SizeLimit. so, I'd suggest looking at the following files
Makefile.PL
t/apache/all.t
here
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/perl/Apache-SizeLimit/trunk/
and see if they don't make a degree of sense and are something you can
migrate to Apache-Dispatch.
really, the problem is that for mp1 modules you can't rely on someone
having Apache-Test installed, and even if they do you can't rely on
$ perl Makefile.PL -apxs /foo/apxs
so, unless you want a ton of bugreports, or you want CPAN.pm to fail,
you need to take some extra steps. see also WebService-CaptchasDotNot
(another one of my modules) that similarly tweaks stuff.
not to add extra work, but if you have the tuits. really, it's all a
matter of how nice you want to be to your users.
