Hi Alan,

First thing to say is that there is a show-stopper bug in Apache 2
which prevents modules which use PCRE from working.  mod_caml is one
of those modules:

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27550

If you want to see this bug fixed, please add your comments to that
page.

There are suggestions on that page for compiling a version of Apache
which doesn't cause conflicting symbols, however it's probably a case
of it's easier to use a version of Apache 1.3 precompiled for FC1,
which definitely should work.

Just to check it is the PCRE bug, can you get a stack trace.  IIRC
the command is:

 gdb
 run /usr/sbin/apache -X
 [segfault]
