I've never had a problem with that @inst_prefix_dir@ error, but the "seems
to be moved" error I have experienced.

Notice the "//" before libexpat.la.

In my case, configure and libtool thought /usr/local/lib and
/usr/local/lib/ were two different paths and was trying to link against
both of them. configure was getting its information from apu-config,
which when run with --ldflags reported:

-L/usr/local/lib/ -L/usr/local/lib

It subsequently built every link command line with the above, which
confused the linker.

I fixed it with by setting LDFLAGS before running configure with my usual
options:

export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
export APACHEBIN=/usr/local/apache2/bin
./configure --with-neon=/usr/local --with-apxs=$APACHEBIN/apxs \
   --with-apr=$APACHEBIN/apr-1-config \
   --with-apr-util=$APACHEBIN/apu-1-config --with-ssl --with-zlib \
   --with-berkeley-db
