Local file security (in 1.27)

I'm developing an online survey system under mod_perl (with a homemade perlhandler, not under Apache::Registry). Since I've had as a goal to avoid as many dependencies as possible, I store results in local plaintext files. By nature, these files has (?) to be writable by the uid apache runs as.
