Unless I'm missing something, mod_perl doesn't do anything special with STDERR (it does tie STDIN and STDOUT for 'perl-script' handlers). Apache opens stderr to error_log, and then everything just works. e.g. if you do:
warn "Foo"; or print STDERR "OOOPS\n";
this ends up in error_log, no?
I suppose that XML::LibXSLT redefines STDERR then. Try to see what it does to create this problem.
The key to this problem is that the function $parser->parse_string() cannot take a scalar as argument.
This way it works and doesn't produce "Can't coerce ..." anymore :
my $sheet = $parser->parse_string(<<'EOT'); <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="text" indent="no"/> <xsl:strip-space elements="FILTER_RULE NAT_RULE LOG_RULE"/> <!-- this XSLT sheet transforms a netfilter XML rule document into an iptables script -->
<xsl:template match="NETFILTER">
...
EOT
