me neither.  I played around with a few things but wasn't able to see the
fix quickly.  and unfortunately I don't have as much free time as I used to
so I probably won't be able to work on this at the moment...

what I did do, however, was add a new test to the mp2 test suite in svn

  ModPerl-Registry/t/fatalstobrowser.t

you can comment out the skip_reason() call and run the test to easily
replicate the environment and issues.

maybe someone with some free tuits will jump on this since it's now fairly
simple to investigate :)
