Apache2::compat from mod_perl 2.0.3 -- multiple issues

[Joshua Hoblitt <suppressed>]

It seems that compat.pm isn't 'use strict' clean even thou it is declaring this
pragma.

    #     Error:  Bareword "Apache2::ServerUtil::server_root" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/Apache2/compat.pm line 347, <DATA> line 9.

This error is caused by 'Apache2::ServerUtil::server_root' (note that
missing '()') and this repeated in several places through-out compat.pm.

Commenting out the 'use strict' at the top of compat.om reveals another more
serious error:

    #     Error:  Undefined subroutine &Apache2::ServerUtil::restart_count called at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/Apache2/compat.pm line 76, <DATA> line 9.

Which I assume is supposed to be provided by ServerUtil.so except that this
symbol isn't defined in this lib.

    nm ./Apache2/ServerUtil/ServerUtil.so | grep restart
    00001cf0 T XS_Apache2__ServerUtil_restart_count
             U modperl_restart_count

Any ideas as to what might have gone wrong in the build?
