Found a way around it. I used <LocationMatch "^/$">. Now it does what I want

if you set a handler for / it will handle every request that way.
you can either have all pages that are generated be /foo/ and set
that as the location, or you can force all files with a certain
suffix to be handled by mod_perl: <Files ~ "*\.pl">.
