I'm curious about this one. I'm not sure which version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker
added prompt (it's in at least 6.31, but I don't know about 6.30). It works just
fine for me.

I am trying to be smarter than the average Makefile.PL, but I just seem to be
getting more trouble then it's work at this point. I'll probably just go back to
being dumb and not run the Apache/mod_perl tests unless the person already have
Apache::Test installed.

You need to install Module::Build using CPAN.

Try upgrading your ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

using the command line to install perl modules is so 2000 :) Have you tried the
CPAN shell?
