I haven't used HPUX in a while, but if it has the ldd command you should
be able to find out which library is causing the problem.

Then you can add the directory where the library resides to
/apache-install-directory/bin/envvars in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

Or you can compile in an RPATH which may have a slight security benefit. 
Depending upon the OS, you may be able to do that by exporting
LDFLAGS='-L/path/to/lib -R/path/to/lib' or you may have to do something like

export LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/lib  -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/path/to/lib"
