You are attempting to build mod_authn_dbi against Apache 2.0.X, and not
Apache 2.1.0-CVS which is the minimum required version.  The CVS -HEAD
versions of Apache or the 'development branch', has a new authentication
system.  

Our module is not compatible with any 'released' version of Apache.  You
must use the 2.1.0 from Apache's CVS to use this module. 

Thanks for trying it out :)  Even if you added the header, the module
will not work unless it is being used on Apache 2.1.0. (would need to
replace the entire authentication system to make it work on 2.0.XX).
