when you manually add in an apache module, particular attention has to
be paid to the order of the modules (in the DSO section as you are aware
of). if it's in the wrong order, apache will die. here's a reelvant
section in my DSO section:

 LoadModule layout_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_layout.so
 LoadModule perl_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_perl.so
 # LoadModule put_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_put.so
 
put it there, and all should be well.
