OK, then I propose an extension. In a import(), mod_perl.pm should
determine if not running under real mod_perl (i.e. $ENV{MOD_PERL}) and if
not, export a %mod_perl hash containing all the compiled in directives, so
that you can do:
if (!$mod_perl{PERL_LOG_API}) {
die "Need Apache::Log (PERL_LOG_API) enabled in mod_perl to run";
}
Sound good? Doug, Eric, any thoughts?
