I just ran into the silent-failure problem again today, when a sysadmin
unknowingly upgraded glibc underneath mod_perl built as a DSO.
Unfortunately, it was on a production system; fortunately, it was not on a
very important production system, and rebuilding the tools fixed the
problem. 

In anticipation of the postmortem meeting, I'm trying to find out if this
problem still exists in mod_perl 2.0.  Websearches have been  fruitless; any
pe[a]rls of wisdom from the list?
