Snow Leopard wrong architecture error, 'mach-o, but wrong architecture' [mp2]

I have banged my head against this one for a few days but can't get
perl 5.10.1, 2.2.14, mod_perl 2.0.5-dev working on Snow Leopard.
There are some other similar problems you will find for Snow Leopard
through Google, with ruby, python, etc., but none of those have led to
a fix for this problem.

Here are the relevant errors, any advice appreciated:
