Randy, can you please move this item to 2.0/user/troubleshooting.pod? This 
problem is mod_perl 2.0-specific and not specific to win32. Thanks.

Also it's probably a good idea to specify which is the minimal CGI.pm 
version that they should be good with.

Something like this in the run time section

=head2 Can't find Apache.pm

You need to install at least version XXX of CGI.pm to use under mod_perl 2.0.

But that's why it has the link to the main troubleshooting section.

In fact I think the 'See also' section should read:

"If you haven't found a solution for your problem in this document please 
check the main troubleshooting document, where non-win32 specific problems 
and their solutions are listed."

In that case there is no reason to duplicate items, since it'll make the 
reader check two documents.

I'd also add a link to 'See also' (which is at the bottom of doc) at the 
beginning of the document, in the second para of the description.

Finally I suggest to drop the link to 1.0's troubleshooting doc, since 
it's pretty much irrelevant and just will make the reader more confused 
and lost.

Thanks Stas - I added that to the troubleshooting section. I
thought it an idea though for the time being to also leave it
mentioned in the Win32 section, as judging by some emails I get,
some find it hard to believe problems they have aren't Win32
specific ...
