[mod_python] SuSE 7.1 RPM mod_python & apache

I tried to simplify things and took it out of the <IfDefine PYTHON> tags and
placed the LoadModule and AddModule lines in the normal place (along with
all the others.  But I'm getting the same error as before.  Does the
<Directory /some/directory/htdocs/test> need to be placed inside another set
of tags or can it simply be appended at the end of the file?  I have it as
the last 5 lines of my httpd.conf
