    apache2 FTCBFS: multiple reasons
    
    apache2 fails to cross build from source. Let me explain the individual
    subproblems.
    
     * The build dependency on the host architecture perl conflicts with the
       essential build architecture perl. It turns out, apache2 wants to run
       perl during build, so it actually needs the build architecture perl.
       Annotating the dependency with :any fixes that.
    
     * ./configure fails finding .pc files, because it uses the build
       architecture pkg-config. It should be using AC_PATH_TOOL (or better
       PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG) rather than AC_PATH_PROG.
    
     * Fixing configure.ac does not influence the build as ./configure is
       not built from source. dh-autoreconf fixes that.
    
     * Finally, the build fails running ./server/gen_test_char. It should be
       built with the build architecture compiler, but the build system is
       incapable of doing so. The mailing list suggests just compiling and
       running that file ahead of the actual build.
    
    After applying the attached patch, apache2 cross builds successfully.
    Please consider using it.
