Hi,
in the ebuild for mod_perl there is this code:
 if [ "${INSTALLED_MPM}" != "prefork" ]; then
        if [ "${ITHREADS}" == "undef" ]; then
            ewarn "You cannot build mod_perl on a threaded apache"
            ewarn "with an unthreaded perl. You must either emerge"
            ewarn "perl with ithreads in your USE flags, or emerge"
            ewarn "apache without threading support"
            exit
        fi
    fi

when I try to emerge it, with threated apache and unthreaded perl I got:
...
>>> Unpacking source...
 * You cannot build mod_perl on a threaded apache
 * with an unthreaded perl. You must either emerge
 * perl with ithreads in your USE flags, or emerge
 * apache without threading support
>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/www-apache/mod_perl-2.0.3 ...
Can't open perl script "Makefile.PL": No such file or directory

That is ok. However I think that "die" should be better than "exit" here in 
order to avoid the error "Can't open ...".
