two issues with this patch:

- as i mentioned, the code for sending the scoreboard image doesn't belong 
tied to modperl, as it can be used in a server without modperl.  there 
should be a mod_scoreboard_send.c that can be compiled with apxs without 
any perl stuff.  it could then export an optional function for the perl 
wrapper to call the send function.

- looking at the patch, seems that WrapXS is more trouble than a help 
here.  that is, normally WrapXS takes care of many things for you, but in 
this case it looks like too much extra effort is happening.  there is so 
much mpxs_Apache__Scoreboard_* and _pm and DEFINE_* and MPXS_*'s that 
make the code harder to read and more difficult to maintain than if 
everything was done in a standard xs module without WrapXS.

i'm thinking at the very least, the code should be moved to a 
self-contained Apache-Scoreboard subdirectory, using standard xs.
and given that mod_scoreboard_send.c should be usable without modperl, 
perhaps this stuff should not be part of the modperl core, but its own 
package like 1.x.  thoughts?
