use is syntactically equiavalent to
BEGIN
{
require Foo;
Foo->import(@argarray);
}
so $baz will need to be defined at compile time, ie. within its own BEGIN

I'm following the description in Chap 8. of the Eagle Book for creating a
module which adds configuration directives to Apache, however on my server
version etc (see below), the first time through, the directive passes, but
the directive gets rejected as an invalid command in the reload phase.
