I'm late in replying to this, but a major problem on FreeBSD 10 is the
fact that programs ship with a libtool script that incorrectly
identifies it as FreeBSD 1.x, and thus disables building of shared
libraries.  I am guessing this is the problem you are running into.

This is not really apache, perl, or mod_perl's fault.  You have to patch
libtool so that it does not incorrectly identify it as FreeBSD 1.x.

I use the following in my own makefiles, adapted from FreeBSD ports
tree, which also applies this fix:
