p5.26-libapreq2 and mod_perl2 morass

[Marius Schamschula]

Murray,

mod_perl2 defaults to building with perl 5.24, as this currently the default branch. You have to explicitly build with perl 5.26 by specifying the variant:

sudo port install mod_perl2 +perl5_26

Once you do this, I think the rest of your install should proceed.
