Hiding your source code is a FAQ (http://perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/pod/perlfaq3.html#How-can-I-hide-the-source-for-my-Perl-program-) so the real question is more whether or not the method you've chosen to hide it works with mod_perl. I believe source filters do work, although I've never tried them myself. If you search in the mail archives you'll find many long and flaming threads on the subject.
Personally, I would appreciate it if everyone would let this thread die quietly unless they have something specific to add about the use of source filters (or alternate methods) with mod_perl. If you want to argue the ethics of hiding source code, please do it off the list. - Perrin
