You also have to either tweak the rhel-4/rhel-3 patch to put things in the
appropriate RPM build directory and %{_libdir}/httpd/modules subdirectory
instead of the patch's hard-coded /usr/lib/httpd/modules directory, or do
something else. It's a one-line "sed" statement in the .spec file the way
I'm doing it, which I'll be happy to provide the patch for.
