This is your problem. Apparently if you call Apache2::Request->new
with an undefined object, it segfaults.
i ran this:
use Apache2::Request;
my $req = Apache2::Request->new($r);
print qq[Content-type: text/html\n\n];
print q[hi];
through registry, and saw
[Sat Jul 12 22:58:58 2008] [notice] child pid 5703 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)
If you change that to
use Apache2::Request;
my $r = shift;
my $req = Apache2::Request->new($r);
print qq[Content-type: text/html\n\n];
print q[hi];
it should work. Unfortunately, it looks like the documentation for
ModPerl::Registry is kind of lacking on perl.apache.org, but what is
there is at
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/ModPerl/Registry.html

OK, when I defined $r as you did, it worked. For documentation, I was
looking at here:
<http://search.cpan.org/~joesuf/libapreq2-2.08/glue/perl/lib/Apache2/Request.pm>
I see you are just printing to standard output, like a CGI script. In
the book, it used
$r->send_http_header('text/plain');
$r->print("mod_perl rules!\n");
but there are no such methods on $r here in 2.0.
What, prey tell, is the equivalent object?
Is there =any= way to get started, like a simple (but working!) program
I could look at?
