I see the problem. There is mistake in the Apache::Cookie
documentation, but the correct way to do this is shown in the mod_perl
guide:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/porting.html#Converting_to_use_Apache_Perl_Modules
Change your last line to this:
my $uid = defined $cookies->{'uid'} ? $cookies->{'uid'}->value() :
undef;
