I have my doubts that it's Handel per se, since it's ExtUtils::MakeMaker
that's doing the creating.

What versions of:

	ExtUTils::MakeMaker
	Apache::Test

do you have installed?

Find this line in Makefile.PL

    eval 'use Apache::Test 1.27';

and change it to this:

eval 'use Apache::Test 1.99';


Now, try running perl Makefile.PL again.

Do you still get a 0 byte Makefile?

If not, it may be something in A::T. If so, E::M...
