He also suggested a workaround.   In case you missed it, I quote:

I guess there is MTOWTDI.  ;-)  I do, however, think that setting
EMBPERL_URIMATCH is a bit cleaner.  Basically it restricts Embperl 
to only act on the pages that end in '.htm(l)' and '.epl'.

If you are happy with your solution, then all is well and good.  I just
thought I would reinterate the solution that Gerald suggested as it has
worked fantasitically for me.

Heh, smack me behind the head with a sack of doorknobs, didn't really give 
too much thought to Gerald's solution, my head read EMBPERL_FILEMATCH (or 
something like this?) as soon as it saw the "\.htm.?|\.epl$" part.

Yeah, cool, now I see what was suggested and I understand it's cleaner :)))
Oh well... teaches you to read 2 times before writing anything :)
