Stas, I'm really appreciate your work in the documentation area, but...

Sorry, no.

go back to internal <Perl> sections package name ApacheReadConfig

and from perl_config.c:
...
#define PERL_SECTIONS_PACKAGE "ApacheReadConfig"
...
and

nk = perl_eval_pv("scalar(keys %ApacheReadConfig::);",TRUE);

Yes, but with the wrong namespace, not a problem when the user uses only
<Perl>...</Perl> Sections, but useless for PerlRequire (recently fixed)
and PerlModule.

Broken, BTW. (fix at the end)
My point is that the bootstrap feature, IMHO one of the most powerfull of
mod_perl (because many Apache modules can be made self-configurables{sp?})
was, in the begining so buggy and that most users and developers
stay away from it and uses only the <Perl>..</Perl> part.
And my bad English can't help.
