MODPERL2 is documented here, although it doesn't answer the question of
why the server starts with that directive and doesn't start without it:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/porting/porting.html#Making_Code_Conditional_on_Running_mod_perl_Version
Most instances of the server not starting which have not been related to
the timeout being too low were missing test skips if a certain module
wasn't present (i.e. mod_alias, etc). I know I've fixed a few of those
issues, but there may be some remaining. My guess is that your httpd
builds may not have the exact same modules compiled in or loaded
dynamically.
I don't really understand why you need that perl section at all though,
Apache::Test should be picking up those library paths implicitly.
