You will have to use one of the 1.99.* versions of mod_perl with Apache2, earlier versions do not support Apache2. The new versions are currently not keyworded for sparc, that's why it's using the older versions. If it compiles and works for you, file a bug saying it works.

Well I don't know if it's the "Official" or recomended way, but what I find easiest is to pass the ebuild file as an arguement to emerge. That way you don't need to worry about manually keywording and such.
Code:
emerge -pv /usr/portage/dev-perl/mod_perl/mod_perl-1.99.11.ebuild


I'm sure if there's a better way, someone will correct me.

of course there is : its linux :)

the easiest way for a one off customised install option is to emerge using the following format :

Code:
USE="-flag" emerge program_name


the use statement must be in capitals. any number of flags can be added & removed within the commas, and this can also be used while installing lists of programs.

this also only affects that single emerge operation (since you havent touched the /etc/make.conf file);

If the program is masked, then the ~x86 is the flag you want (unless your using someother hardware arch)

Actually, if you want to use a masked ebuild, then you have to do this:

Code:

#ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~arch" emerge program
