Would you mind please submitting this as a standard NON-Apache CPAN module?
There are too many modules (even 1 is too many... ;)) under the Apache::*
moniker that actually can be used in generic CGI programs.
The fixuphandler sounds interesting, but I would prefer if that were a
wrapper around another module that generically is designed to check the
user agent regardless of mod_perl, PerlEx, Win32Perl, CGI/Perl. FastCGI,
whatever...
So two CPAN submissions, one under Apache::* and another under CGI::* or
maybe under LWP.... (I prefer CGI::* though)...
Later,
