Ops, I've missed this posting and now even with 1.3.6 we still have:

Server: mod_perl/1.18 Apache/1.3.6 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.6 OpenSSL/0.9.2b DAV/0.9.7

Why to the hell is it occuring before Apache/1.3.6.
Interesting. BTW, all modules on this box are DSOs!
So where the difference between mod_dav/mod_ssl and mod_perl, here....?
