I hit a similar problem too - and decided to ignore that particular test (I think I 
commented it out or removed it from the t directory). The system seemed
to work fine afterwards so it may in fact be the test which is at fault.

One suggestion is to make sure you don't have an httpd already running before
doing the test. ALso you'll need to run the test as root for it to work at all.

Why 6.1 and not 7.1?

PS Does anyone know if the PHP and mod_perl incompatibilities were sorted out?
