It is a matter of flexibility, especially if you are a distribution
vendor like RedHat or SuSE. Not all your customers will want perl in
their server, and using the DSO way of doing things only those folks
that need it can put the proper directive to load it into their
httpd.conf. That the DSO version is buggy in this regard is different
matter alltogether. I am wondering if other folks that embed perl
interpreters into their applications are having similar problems. I
would believe that is a general perl bug.
