What problem?  The LoadModule directives in your config refer to files in
the modules directory.  We name them with .so - but they are no different
than any other apache-compiled .dll.  You can LoadModule a (windows compiled)
apache module named mod_foo.so, or mod_foo.dll - the name makes no difference.
