I was able to get Apache 1.3.37 to compile on a Quadra 700 under NetBSD
3.1.   It required Perl, but it did compile and run.  Unfortunately, I
can't get NetBSD 3.1 to install on the LC III, and I can't get Apache
1.3.37 to successfully build under 1.6.2 on the LC III -- it chokes on
the Perl 5 build.

I think I might just try to install the regular 1.6.2 release instead of
the softfloat build, then try compiling Apache again.   Or, if I could
track down a precompiled package for NetBSD 1.6.2, that would probably
work too.
