[Module::Build] Module::Build + Apache2 oddity

[Tyler M. <ty...@yi...>]

I have a function that does this to get database settings, to test an
apache2 handler that uses a database:

sub test_db {
    my $build = Apache::TestMB->current;
    return unless $build->notes('DBI_DSN');
    return map {
        defined $build->notes($_) ? $build->notes($_) : ''
    } qw(DBI_DSN DBI_USER DBI_PASS);
}

When I grab these values from within extra.last.conf.in, the function
returns successfully and gives me the right settings right away. However,
Apache::Test's apache2 times out waiting for the server to start. I get the
same result with Module::Build->current.

When I set these in my extra.conf.last.in manually, everything works and my
tests pass.

I'm kind of confused as to how invoking a Module::Build object could cause
the server to hang long after the object has been destroyed. Any ideas?

For now, I'm just doing to do() the _build/notes file to get this config
data.
