IPC::Shareable problems

Hi,

I've been having some problems delete()'ing elements from a tied
IPC::Shareable hash. The example from the pod works fine (but that's not
running under mod_perl) so I'm wondering if there are any lifetime/scope
issues with using IPC::Shareable 0.51 under mod_perl 1.24. Has anyone had
any "Munged shared memory segment (size exceeded?)" errors when trying to
access (I'm using `exists()') a previously deleted hash element? I see no
examples in the Eagle of deleting tied and shared hash elements (only
under Apache::Registry), and Deja and various newsgroups and web searches
haven't turned up anything. I'm running Apache 1.3.12 and Perl 5.6.0.

Thanks,

hi,
 you should try with IPC::ShareLite which provide the same things but seems
better maintained...
