Well, my older scripts use CGI::Form and CGI::Request along with
CGI::Base.

However, it is easy to work around.  If your new version does not get
a parameter, i.e., is called like "my $q = CGI::Form->new()" or "my
$q = new CGI::Form" then instantiate a CGI::Request object for them
and return that as your object handle, subclassing yourself to that
object.  I think you can do this at runtime...
