Errors installing mod_python with apache

I've tried this on both RHEL5.5 and RHEL 6.0, using the default apache that
comes with the environment and itself isn't configured with mod_python.

The first thing I noticed when mod_python wouldn't install was that apsx
wasn't installed either.  After a lot of pain, I discovered httpd-devel
provided apsx and so installed that.

Back to mod_python.  After running ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs,
according to the README I need to run "make dso", but that promptly blows
up because it's looking for header files in /usr/include/httpd and itlooks
like the apxs files are in /usr/include/apr1, so I copied all its contents
to /usr/include/httpd.

Now when I try to make dso, it successfully gets past finding its header
files but now fails with:

[root at rhel6 mod_python-2.7.10]#  make dso

and a lot more.  Can anyone help?
