Inside the sections for apxs and apxs2 (on lines 3326 and 3722) of the configure script, it tries to set a variable named APACHE_VERSION with the results of expr:

APACHE_VERSION=`expr $4 \* 1000000 + $5 \* 1000 + $6`

This apparently assumes (prays?) that the user will have specified an Apache source directory after the first argument. Of course when I run:

configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs

...as is recommended in the documentation, $4, $5, and $6 are set to 'usr', 'local', and 'apache2', which causes expr to fail.
