I'm not sure if the warnings are critical. But here is the output.
[root at hylafax libapreq-1.0]# perl Makefile.PL
Writing Makefile for libapreq
Warning: -L../blib/arch/auto/libapreq changed to

I don't see a warning for Apache::Cookie. This it the module I seem to
have trouble installing.

Should I go ahead with the remaining steps?

make
make test
make install

Or should I correct the Warnings first?

TIA
