Not sure if this is the best way, but here's what I found works for
compiling mod_security in statically for Apache 2 (I was building Apache
2.0.54 in this case):

Hope that helps,
Jeff

   Thanks for that Jeff,

   I knew someone wrote about an easy way to compile mod_security
   statically with Apache 2 but I couldn't find the email. By
   placing mod_security into an existing module directory you
   are taking advantage of the existing config.m4 and Makefile.in
   files. Much better than what I did :)
