a bit more investigation on producing a WMS response via Perl MapScript reveals 
the following error

  <?xml version='1.0' encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="no" ?>
  <!DOCTYPE ServiceExceptionReport SYSTEM 
"http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.0/exception_1_1_0.dtd";>
  <ServiceExceptionReport version="1.1.0">
  <ServiceException>
  msWMSDispatch(): WMS server error. WMS request not enabled. Check 
wms/ows_enable_request settings.
  </ServiceException>
  </ServiceExceptionReport>

So, it seems I have to somehow, somewhere enable 'ows_enable_request'. Looking 
at the documentation, seems like if I had a map file, I could add the following 
line to do so

  ows_enable_request '*'

However, I am not using a map file at all. Not finding any documentation on 
this setting, I tried the following to no avail

  $map->{ows_enable_request} = '*';


Suggestions, anyone?
