This looks to me as you would be mixing Apache and mod_perl installation. Instead of giving just another puzzle piece, it might be more helpful to you when I show you how I installed Apache and mod_perl from the sources using customised paths. ‘MySourcePath’ and ‘MyHttpdPrefixPath’ present my local setup, so you need to adapt this to your path structure.

cd /MySourcePath/apr-1.6.2
./configure —prefix=/MyHttpdPrefixPath
make
make test
make install

cd /MySourcePath/apr-util-1.6.0
./configure --prefix=/MyHttpdPrefixPath --without-sqlite3 --with-apr=/MyHttpdPrefixPath
make
make test
make install

cd /MySourcePath/pcre-8.41
./configure --prefix=/MyHttpdPrefixPath
make
make test
make install

 
cd /MySourcePath/httpd-2.4.27
./configure --prefix=/MyHttpdPrefixPath --with-mpm=prefork --enable-mods-shared=all --enable-dav --enable-rewrite --enable-ssl --enable-proxy --enable-proxy_http --enable-auth-digest --with-apr=/MyHttpdPrefixPath --with-apr-util=/MyHttpdPrefixPath --with-pcre=/MyHttpdPrefixPath —with-ssl=/MySslPath
(of course you might have different needs, so feel free to leave some options away)
make
make install

 
cd /MySourcePath/mod_perl-2.0.10 
perl Makefile.PL MP_APR_CONFIG=/MyHttpdPrefixPath/bin/apr-1-config MP_APXS=/MyHttpdPrefixPath/bin/apxs
make
make test
make install

The test had shown minor problems here, but for my requirements all functions are working.

I hope this offers you a more complete picture.
