Makefile

I'm trying to create an install configuration for Gentoo Linux, and I'm
getting an error that I believe is caused by the Makefile. (I don't know C
or Makefiles.)

I'm getting an error in [install-mods-shared] that says:

cp .libs/mod_dav_svn.soT /usr/lib/apache2/mod_dav_svn.so
ACCESS DENIED open_wr: /usr/lib/apache2/mod_dav_svn.so
cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/lib/apache2/mod_dav_svn.so`: Permission
denied

The Gentoo build process is similar to RPM in that when you build an RPM
from source, it compiles in a temp directory and installs into another temp
directory. I checked, and [temp-install-dir]/usr/lib/apache2 doesn't exist
as a folder. The makefile should "mkdir /usr/lib/apache2" just in case -
this will let RPM and Gentoo (possibly others) to build successfully.

If I'm wrong, let me know, but I don't think this would break anything.
