I've heard some beta ppm clients don't have the ability
yet to run post-installation scripts.

The mod_perl.so in that distribution most probably isn't
compatible with your apache version. What you could do is
get the file mod_perl-1.26_1.3.23.tar.gz from
   http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/x86/
which, when unpacked, will contain a mod_perl.so file
(plus a blib/ subdirectory). Copy this mod_perl.so to
your Apache modules, and see if that works (this one
is built against apache_1.3.23, which I think will work
against 1.3.24 - if not, I'm going to update it shortly).
