I have seen this with a build from .tar.gz on OpenBSD 2.5 also with
Apache/1.3.6 (Unix) mod_perl/1.21. Slightly older Apache, but I don't think
that's the problem.
I have never seen a good pattern to this, but there are times when the Apache->
request object is undefined in a mod_perl handler. Sometimes, calling Apache->
request($r) immediately upon entering a handler will fix it, sometimes even
that won't work ($r is sometimes underfined when entering a handler).
