Thanks for the list! Note that some other ports that do not  
explicitly list mod_perl2 as a dependency include code that uses it  
if installed. These will also break. Based on my own experience, this  
includes at least www/twiki and devel/cvsweb3. I'm sure there are  
others, but I have no clue how to identify them all.
