No, the position is already wrong before any read. So saving it for later purposes won't fix it. The bug (?) even occurs in this minimal handler without any reads: #!/usr/bin/perl package TestHandler; sub handler { warn tell DATA; return 0; } 1; __DATA__ foobarbaz Correct result without preloading of the module: 93 at /mnt/data/pro/konstrukt/dev/lib/TestHandler.pm line 4. Incorrect result when preloading it in a script which is loaded by Apache's PerlRequire: 103 at /mnt/data/pro/konstrukt/dev/lib/TestHandler.pm line 4. The cursor is positioned at the end of the file. On some larger files it is often positioned somewhere in the middle of the DATA section.
