The question is, do we want to have this feature in mp2?
I thought it was cool to have it automatically add a path relative to the server root, because it makes it feel more like you are writing real Apache modules, and not just CGI scripts. It's just a warm fuzzy thing really. I have no problem with dropping that feature and adding the path myself in startup.pl or httpd.conf.
I'm +0 on adding this feature. While I have never used it myself, I see no harm in keeping back-compatibility with 1.0. Unless someone has a reason for not having it I'll commit the patch I've posted earlier.
in 1.0 I used it all the time and liked having it there. however, I suspect that doug left it out on purpose - IIRC PerlSwitches was his answer when this was asked before (maybe it was at a conference, I can't remember).
anyway, I'd say do it and let purists complain later - it will make porting that much more seamless.
