I'm not familiar with this sw, but I'll assume that it remembers the state (the last visited page). Does Twiki claim to be mod_perl clean? It's probably not coded with persistency in mind or happens to have the closure problem under Registry. As a temp workaround use Apache::PerlRun instead of Apache::Registry. See the guide for more info on these issues.
