It looks like you are using ASP, did you know that $Response->Write()/print()
has its own buffering if you have BufferingOn set ? If you used print()
by itself, then you might have the most flexibility if you are looking
at porting issues.
To answer your question specifically, you can do a
Apache->register_cleanup(sub { $Utils::buffer = '' } );
or the same with ASP $Server->RegisterCleanup()... or
you could do this in ASP global.asa Script_OnStart too,
but you have to do it at some point. You might
also have some function called Utils->init_buffer() which
you could call to do this, and declare buffer as a my()
in Utils so no other package could possibly access it.
