PerlSetupEnv Off not working
Perhaps I am a bit confused about how this should be working...but..
I have PerlSetupEnv set to Off in httpd.conf..
yet in this sample script running as an Apache::Registry script:
#!/opt/bin/perl
use Data::Dumper;
my $r = Apache->request();
$r->send_http_header('text/plain');
print Dumper(\%ENV);
its dumping out what appears to be a complete enviroment..
what gives, shouldnt this be empty?
there are some other Apache::Registry scripts which havent been
re-written to not use CGI.pm anymore, is it possible that 'use'ing
CGI.pm;' is forcing this to be turned back on?
-confused

I understand that, but that is not what I am asking.
Theoretically if CGI.pm requires PerlSetupEnv, then those scripts which
use CGI.pm should stop working..
they are working just fine..
the %ENV hash is being populated as well..
yet plain as day in httpd.conf it says PerlSetupEnv Off
what I'm asking is, why... ?

i assume thats a typo, i think PerlSetupEnv has been in since '96
have you seen this bug report? http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=95867712412668&w=2
might have something to do with it.

Perhaps the problem is that the page reads...
PerlSetupEnv Off is another optimization you might consider. This
directive requires mod_perl 1.25 or later.
but I run mod_perl 1.24, but http://perl.apache.org/dist/ makes no
reference to mod_perl 1.25
