-------------------------------+----------------------------------
 Just now with MacPorts 2.3.4 under El Capitan 10.11.1, trying to upgrade

     php56-apache2handler 5.6.14_0 < 5.6.15_0

 led to a configure error. The log shows:
 {{{
 :info:configure checking for Apache 2.0 handler-module support via DSO
 through APXS...
 :info:configure
 :info:configure Sorry, I cannot run apxs.  Possible reasons follow:
 :info:configure
 :info:configure 1. Perl is not installed
 :info:configure 2. apxs was not found. Try to pass the path using --with-
 apxs2=/path/to/apxs
 :info:configure 3. Apache was not built using --enable-so (the apxs usage
 page is displayed)
 :info:configure
 :info:configure The output of /opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs follows:
 :info:configure ./configure: /opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs:
 /opt/local/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
 :info:configure configure: error: Aborting
 }}}

 (1) Perl _is_ installed:

 {{{
           sudo port installed | grep perl5
      :
      :
     perl5 @5.16.3_0+perl5_16
     perl5 @5.16.3_0+perl5_20
     perl5.12 @5.12.5_0
     perl5.16 @5.16.3_1 (active)
     perl5.18 @5.18.4_1 (active)
     perl5.20 @5.20.3_0 (active)
     perl5.22 @5.22.0_0 (active)
 }}}

 (2) And apxs is installed and ought to be found:
 {{{
          which apxs
     /opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs
          echo $PATH
     /opt/local/bin: ... /opt/local/apache2/bin
 }}}

 Which leaves possible reason (3), "Apache was not built using --enable-so
 (the apxs usage page is displayed)".

 I find:
 {{{
          httpd -l
     Compiled in modules:
      core.c
      prefork.c
      http_core.c
      mod_so.c
 }}}

 So what does "not built using --enable-so" mean and how should this be
 fixed?

 Note that after migrating macports from Yosemite to El Capitan, I had no
 trouble installing the earlier version of php56-apache2handler.

 The full main.log is attached.
