hi.
I just came across a really wierd problem with 5.6.1/apache2 prefork.


I have a perl script which does/did the following

..
print "<!--#include virtual='x.pl' -->
..

now .. with straight CGI, this worked fine. but using mod-perl i get 
some weird & wonderfull errors.. mainly when I used
print <<EOF
...
...
EOF

for some reason.

so.. the question.
is perl 5.6.1 re-entrant?
is 5.8 ?

is their a option I should be setting to enable this?

Thanks
Ian.
