Are you using Fedora or RHEL 4+ by any chance? A Google search using the
error message points to lots of docs referring to SELinux getting in the
way of Apache finding its libs. Some places suggest disabling SELinux
completely, but there has to be a more elegant solution to tell SELinux
to let Apache load those new libs.
