Ok this seems to be caused by putting MP_vtbl_env and MP_vtbl_envelem in
the modperl_env.h header and removal of "static" qualifier for these
structs.  Presumably this was done to be threaded perl friendly?
Anyway, I made the compiler happy by adding "extern" in the header:

I also need the "no APR_INLINE" patch on OS X, to get it to compile but
that's nothing new:

I *do* get test failures on OS X, but to be fair 2.0.9 produces even
MORE failures so 2.0.10 is actually an improvement in that regard :).
