 That looks like it will ProxyPass every directory to the mod_perl enabled
 httpd. It would make index.html not work anymore, though. I think the
 optimal solution would:
 
 - display index.html if it is present in the non-mod_perl web directory
 - else display index.asp if it is present in the mod_perl web directory
 - else display a directory listing (if Options +Indexes is on)
 
 I'm thinking that this is not possible, at least not without having to
 make some really ugly configuration hack?

How about this:

Directory /path/to/static/files/
RewriteCond%{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteCond%{REQUEST_FILENAME}index.html!-f
RewriteCond/path/to/dynamic/files%{REQUEST_URI}/index.asp -f
RewriteRule^(.*)$  http://127.0.0.1:8001$1/index.asp   [P]
/Directory

  The simplest answer is to just not use Apache::DBI.  Just use DBI
  normally. The only draw back is that you don't cache database handles
  this way.  But in many configurations that isn't an issue.
 
 Huh? You can read anything from the memory once you are running in the
 same process, be it Apache::DBI, DBI or your own raw access module.

Ahh, I was assuming a DBI handle lexically scoped to the handler subroutine,
sorry about the confusion.

So long as the handle goes away with the connection you're okay.
