Sure, but those messages at the top of your build log are just harmless stderr 
spewage from the source rpm build stage - various %(...) commands are run at 
specfile parse time before anything has had the chance to evaluate 
BuildRequires so naturally /usr/sbin/apxs is not available at that time.  So 
that's not the cause for the build failure (thanks to the "%(... || echo 
ERROR)" stuff).

The actual build failure is caused by:

    cd perl; perl  Makefile.PL -apxs /usr/sbin/apxs INSTALLDIRS=vendor
    Can't find apache include directory at Makefile.PL line 66.
    make[1]: *** [perl/Makefile] Error 9

Also, earlier in the build log, there's lots of this which could have 
something to do with it:

    Package libapreq2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
    Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libapreq2.pc'
    to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
