Hi all,

I'm running a lot of mod_perl handlers on a
rather old Red Hat Linux, RH 6.0 on intel. Everything has
been working fine until now.

Server: Apache/1.3.6 (Unix)  (Red Hat/Linux) mod_perl/1.21
perl -V output appended at the bottom

I have created a handler for embedded perl. Pages with a
.pxp extension are parsed and wrapped in an anonymous sub,
eval'd and cached. The Apache::Request object is passed as
an arg to the sub on invocation.

Besides some occasional and seemingly random segfaults
the testsites are running fine. Surely there are a few
bugs in my code but I think its time to upgrade anyways,
maybe then the seggies will disappear.

So to the question... Are there any known issues with
Redhat 8.0 which ships with perl 5.8.0, httpd 2.0.40
and mod_perl 1.99? Or should I go for something else?
