h5. Add mod_python

• make sure you have python *2.3.4* and *source* installed
• ./configure --with-apache=/usr/local/apache/src
  • Whoops. mod_python does not yet support --with-apache for Apache2
  • ./configure --with-python=/usr/src/python-2.3.4-2
• make
  • When static is supported, use _make static_
• make install

Aw crumbs. I can't get it to build mod_python.so.
