Ok.  i'll submit a patch for PerlSetVar later.

While ServerUtil says this:
	$s->dir_config() provides an interface for the per-server variables  
specified by the PerlSetVar and PerlAddVar directives, and also can  
be manipulated via the APR::Table methods.
	$table = $s->dir_config();
	$value = $s->dir_config($key);
	@values = $s->dir_config($key);
	$s->dir_config($key, $val);

Server configuration ( http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/ 
config.html ) says:

my $foo = $r->dir_config('foo');
In this example $foo would then hold the value 'bar'. NOTE: that  
these directives are parsed at request time which is a slower method  
than using custom Apache configuration directives

=====

i'll make a patch  saying that one can access the dirconfig off a  
Apache2::ServerUtil as well this afternoon
