Okay, here is the problem:

version 5.6.0 = version 5.006

They changed the numbering system with the release of Perl 5.6.  The
previous versions are 5.005_xx, subsequently you can consider the
version 5.005_03 I have on most of my boxes to be version 5.5.3

If I recall correctly, 5.6.0 had some serious security issues (or was
it major bugs?) that makes it totally unsuitable.  You really will have
to upgrade if you want a safe and working mod_perl installation.

Take care,

Jonathan Paton
