sorry for the late reply but......

i've never personally used PerlVINC on any version of mod_perl < 1.24, i
had experienced the silent death on startup problem myself with both
versions of VINC. upgrading Apache::ExtUtils fixed it for me. the fix is
not part of any official mod_perl release. ie you have to get it from the
cvs snapshot.

http://perl.apache.org/from-cvs/modperl/

you dont need to install the whole thing, just the latest version of
Apache::ExtUtils. its needed for when you compile and install PerlVINC.
the version you need is 1.04 and the version that comes with mod_perl 1.24
is 1.03. just run this on the command line to see which version you have:

perl -MApache::ExtUtils -e'print $Apache::ExtUtils::VERSION."\n";'

even with this, i dont know for sure that it (VINC) will work with any
version mod_perl before 1.24. i simply dont have the time to test against
every version. if you cant get it to work with 1.22, maybe it is time for
an upgrade.
