Compiling 2.0.9 with Strawberry Perl 5.20 on windows (64Bit)

I am trying to compile Modperl 2.0.9 on windows with Strawberry Perl 5.20.2 
and Apache 2.2.31 (all 64 bit)
Preferable would be to use Apache 2.4 but that might be a bridge to far.

I use the binary version from Apachelounge.

My first question is, is this supported ?
and can it be done with the Mingw32 environment that comes with Strawberry 
Perl ?

When I try to do so, at I first run into the problem with not finding the
ap_config_auto.h file

When I look in the apache include file ap_config.h there is a line

#if (!defined(WIN32) && !defined(NETWARE)) || defined(__MINGW32__)
#include "ap_config_auto.h"
#include "ap_config_layout.h"
#endif

What I found was that the ap_config_auto was created by the Configure script 
that runs on linux when building Apache.
On Windows this include file is not available.

When I remove '|| defined(__MINGW32__)' and continue I can run the Make file 
without errors.

If I run dmake it starts compiling and after some build modules I get errors 
saying:

mod_perl.lo:mod_perl.c:(.text+0x1a9): undefined reference to 
`__imp_apr_dynamic_fn_register'
mod_perl.lo:mod_perl.c:(.text+0x1d3): undefined reference to

`__imp_ap_hook_insert_filter'
mod_perl.lo:mod_perl.c:(.text+0x29c): undefined reference to 
`__imp_ap_register_output_filter'
...

And some more of these when building mod_perl.so

And then ??

Can it be that the mingw32 environment is not working with the .dll or .lib 
files from Apache ?
Is my environment not correct, do I need to use the MSYS2 shell ?

Sorry many question, any help is welcome.
