I'm still getting the headers. I also have this behavior on other boxes
(one on our redhat server and on one of our client's solaris server),
thus I suppose it's not a platform issue.
Here is how it looks on my box:
[root@frogette /]# cat /opt/mod_perl/test.cgi
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI;
my $q = CGI->new;
print $q->header, $q->start_html,
join( "<BR>\n", map { "$_ : $ENV{$_}" } keys %ENV),
$q->end_html;
[root@frogette /]#
[root@frogette /]# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart: httpd restarted
[root@frogette /]#
And here is what I get:
[root@frogette /]# lynx --head --dump http://mod_perl

Duh... That's a lot of info for a head request :-)
