Clarification of PERL_STASH_POST_DATA
OK, so the documentation for PERL_STASH_POST_DATA reads:
There is an experimental option for Makefile.PL
called PERL_STASH_POST_DATA. If you turn it on,
you can get at it again with $r->subprocess_env("POST_DATA").
This is not on by default because it adds
overhead.
So I rebuilt Apache and mod_perl with PERL_STASH_POST_DATA=1
on the perl Makefile.PL line; however:
1. What *is* $r->subprocess_env("POST_DATA") ? Just the entire
posted data squished up into a single scalar? What about
file uploads?
2. The $r->subprocess_env("POST_DATA") doesn't even seem to
work. I "warn" it to the log file and I get nothing there.
The general problem is preserving POSTed data, including file
uploads, for all handlers.
