1) Create an RPM build environment for a normal user, like explained
here
http://freshrpms.net/docs/fight/
This is to not build things as root, not necessary but highly
recommended

2) Get the httpd SRPM for your Fedora version (be sure it is the from
the updates section if using FC2). By "rpm -ivh packagename.src.rpm" it
will be unpackaged, the source and the patches will go to the SOURCE
directory, the spec file to the SPEC directory.

3) Put the suEXEC patch into the SOURCE dir and then edit the httpd.spec
file. You will need to append the patch to where the other patches are
listed and below where the patches are applied. Increase the release
number. If you have luck that is all.

4) Run then "rpmbuild -ba httpd.spec". If the suEXEC patch applies
without problems then you will get a new httpd RPM. If not you will have
some handwork to do to make the patch fit the package in whole.
