Could you try /usr/bin/apxs -i -a -c -l pcre2-8 mod_evasive.c?
I might have to update the docs on how to build from source

This does not work for me since I miss the pcre files anyway. Thus, I installed the pcre2 dev tool with sudo dnf install pcre2-devel, and then /usr/bin/apxs -i -a -c mod_evasive.c works.

Additionally, compiling the module in Alma 9 may also require sudo dnf install redhat-rpm-config for related missing files
