When mod_perl is compiled with USE_DSO and you load Embperl on server
startup, some parts of Embperl will not work correctly.
One example we see here:
> optRedirectStdout: <br>
also the EMBPERL_OPTIONS are set correctly, the optRedirectStdOut isn't
set!! That's why it doesn't work! So please do not load Embperl at server
startup time. After that your code will work.
You can find a hint in the faq at
http://perl.apache.org/embperl/Faq.pod.1.html#How_do_I_load_Embperl_at_serve
r_
but I will add it in the documentation as well, to make it easier to see
