[freeside] Installation problem

[ivan]

Hmm

The section of code in question is:

sub eidiot {
  #warn "eidiot depriciated";
  idiot(@_);
  if (exists $ENV{MOD_PERL}) {
    eval {
      use Apache;
      Apache::exit();
    };
  } else {
    exit;
  }

I'd guess you're not using mod_perl (and don't have it installed) and I
was silly as the `eval BLOCK' form doesn't properly delay the use
statement until runtime.  Try the following patch and let me know how it
works for you:
