PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1
As mike chamberlain told me over irc, apr-ext/perlio was faling for him
because of the modperl_perl_gensym not being resolved in APR/PerlIO.so. I
didn't see that error since on linux by default symbols resolution is lazy and
since that part of the api wasn't tested I did see the problem. On MacOSX the
loading is RTLD_NOW (non-lazy) so it detects any missing symbols problems
immediately.
Luckily DynaLoader allows us to force the non-lazy mode by setting an env var:
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1. So I suggest to force this env variable on when building
with MP_MAINTAINER=1. I suppose that it should be added to the autogenerated
t/TEST and t/SMOKE. and to t/conf/modperl_extra.pl ($ENV{PERL_DL_NONLAZY}=1)
so it affects the server-side as well as the client-side (normally env var
aren't propogated to the server).

good idea. maintainer mode should have all the flags/warnings/etc we can
think of.
