Wow! That's interesting.

Please take a look at the code in function convert_script_to_compiled_handler at ModPerl-Registry/lib/ModPerl/RegistryCooker.pm, and suggest a fix.

The reason for the failure is pretty clear, the BOM ends up somewhere in the middle of the string that is eval'ed to generate the package. On Linux, I was able to fix that by removing the BOM in RegistryCooker::read_script():


    # remove BOM
    ${$self->{CODE}} =~ s/^(?:
        \xef\xbb\xbf     |
        \xfe\xff         |
        \xff\xfe         |
        \x00\x00\xfe\xff |
        \xff\xfe\x00\x00
    )//x;

For some reason that I haven't figured out yet, this doesn't work on Windows. With the ^ anchor in place, the BOM isn't getting removed, with the ^ anchor gone, the script doesn't seem to receive its request object in @_.
