Synopsis: TestCompile fails because make assumes its running in the Makefile directory

State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback
State-Changed-By: manoj
State-Changed-When: Sun Oct  4 23:49:59 PDT 1998
State-Changed-Why:
The script used to be the way you suggest, but it was
changed last year. TestCompile needs to link stuff in the
same location as the real compile to be reliable.

I don't understand quite what your problem was though. Are
you trying to configure and/or make Apache in a separate
directory from the source tree, or is there some other
uncommon thing you're trying to do?
