This is probably some limit on the length of a name used for a perl
subroutine. And here I thought perl was limitless!!
A work around for this problem might be to set InodeNames,
which will create sub names based on inode info:
http://www.apache-asp.org/config.html#InodeNames
Also, you might try setting GlobalPackage, though the above is more
likely to work. If neither one nor the other seem to work,
try both, as they both have an effect on the subroutine name
and package both are created into.
