So, if it depends on such variables as what its compiled with and what platform you're
running on, then may I infer that it is somewhat flaky on unknown platforms? I'm
going to be running this in a high-load environment on an AIX server with a
not-too-current version of Perl (5.005_03 something-er-other), with misc. IBM
libraries compiled into the binary. I'd say thats pretty iffy, but I'd like to get
your opinions on it first.
Thanks.

As long as you have the latest version of mod_perl (probably from CVS)
you're ok I think. I have no trouble with it on a BSD/OS system
whatsoever.
Others may disagree...
I think it also depends on your OS.
