Use apxs to build modules. Thanks for that confirmation. I thought that might be the case but didn't know for sure. I very happy that I now have mod_fastcgi working. In case the archives of this thread are useful to anyone. I had success with the following installation procedure. The very last two character, the extension, "la" were what I was missing before. I was trying "so" before and had no luck. I took a guess that "la" might worked and it seemed to.
