I don't use this option, because it's not the default and I want to test the
default case (at least for the moment) and when I last tried it (ok, this
was long ago) it didn't work, because it is not the default and it seems
that at this time nobody had used it. Maybe I should retry it....

>From my expericence with the step from Embperl 1.x to Embperl 2.x I would
say: yes make it the default. Since mod_perl 2 isn't (and can't) be 100%
compatible with 1.x, it is not a drop in replacement and if you have a set
of applications that are running fine with 1.x, there is no need to rewrite
(normaly you won't have the time, to adapt them to 2.x), but for new
application you may want to use 2.x. The backdraw is that modules that tries
to run with both versions, need some extra logic, but they will need it
anyway, since this option exists and poeple will use it.

I think we need a smooth upgrade path, nobody will switch in one day.

So +1 for making it the default. (maybe even going one step further, makeing
it the default and removing the option to change it)
