But *that* won't work inside the big subroutine created by
Apache::Registry (which is NOT the same as mod_perl, even though too
many people think so :), and that was the original point. I'm
not sure the new code fixes it. I think the problem is intractable,
or equivalent to the Travelling Salesman and the Farmer's Daughter
problem or something like that. :)
