fix for breakage caused by commit 1682366

mod_perl-2.0.9-rc2 fails to compile on freebsd-10.1 with apache22 installed due to mod_perl svn commit 1682366, unless perl is built with ITHREADS.

This was fixed in the main distribution a couple of commits later, and there's a patch for it here:

Broken plist for 2.0.9-rc2
Comment 2 Nick Hilliard 2015-06-07 17:31:27 UTC
pkg-plist is also broken in mod_perl2-2.0.9-rc2.  See the second patch to fix this problem
Comment 3 Olli Hauer freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-06-07 19:55:21 UTC
Hi Nick,

patch one is OK, but in my tests on 10.1 with perl5.20 I don't see issues with pkg-plist.

Can you provide more details about your 
- perl version plus make showconfig -C lang/perl5.nn
- OS release
Comment 4 Nick Hilliard 2015-06-07 21:19:32 UTC
Hi Olli,

I had a look at the distribution and these files are autogenerated using the xs/maps/modperl_types.map file, but they're only autogenerated if PERL_HAS_ITHREADS has been defined in mod_perl2.  This is defined if $Config{useithreads} is present in the perl configuration.  So if someone builds a single-threaded perl installation, then the ModPerl::{Interpreter,InterpPool,TiPool,TiPoolConfig} modules won't be built and the pkg-plist will throw up an error.

The port will need to test for $Config{useithreads} and then create conditional pkg-plist entries.   The attached complete patch for this problem should fix this - it works on my single-threaded installation (perl 5.20 / freebsd-10.1-amd64 / apache22).

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the patches, anyway can you give a hint how you build your perl5 so I can verify in a test build?

Patches committed in modified version, else pkg-plist is not correct for apache24.

I have another report from a user, will keep the PR open until I have a positive feedback from that user.
Comment 10 Terry Kennedy 2015-06-08 23:36:31 UTC
Builds and runs fine for me now (apache22-2.2.29_5, perl5-5.18.4_14).

Thanks!
