That'll pretty much break the apache rpm installation...

If you stick with the rpm-based Apache installation, it might be as
simple as:

yum install httpd-devel
apxs -cia mod_security.c

as listed on:
http://www.modsecurity.org/documentation/modsecurity-apache/1.9.3/modsecurity-manual.html#02-installation

Of course, you could also grab the RPMS from EPEL...

That'll be in the SPEC file from the source rpm... also, I believe that
be default, you don't get the server-info page unless you're coming in
from localhost.
