I just want to follow up on this for the record. Anybody wondering how
to go about "skipping the eval," it turns out that that you need to
edit modules.db, changing "found" from 0 to 1 for Apache2::SizeLimit.
That informs the "make cpan" process that it doesn't need to worry
about that module. Of course, you should only do this if you have
successfully installed Apache2:SizeLimit, but the Bricolage installer
can't realize it due to the above-described bug.
Best,
Waldo
