RE: Prototype mismatch in Apache::PerlRun line 343

Hi Doug,

Just installed Apache 1.3.7 and mod_perl 1.25 on my Linux box.  To my
surprise, when I ran my scripts using PerlRun.pm, the "Prototype mismatch"
problem still occurs.  When examining the code, it happened to be that line
344 of the new PerlRun.pm is:
    *{$fullname} = eval "sub ($p) {}";
instead of 
    eval "*{\$fullname} = sub ($p) {}";
Apparently, the line in PerlRun.pm (mod_perl 1.25) is not doing what it
should do, which is replacing the sub that $fullname points to with a empty
sub with correct prototype.  Is there anything I am missing here?
