Thanks for your reply. I will try the -X flag.

Can you give me an example some code that would cause a closure that you describe?

I'd love to just switch to a different module. Unfortunatly I use a lot of Apache's methods through Apache::Request since Apache::Request is a sub-class. I'd have to go through my entire program change all that so it probably wouldn't save me a lot of time :(

    This is an example of a closure:

    my $apr;

sub handler {
    my $r = shift;
    $apr = Apache::Request->new($r);
    other_sub();
}

sub other_sub {
    my $foo = $apr->some_method();
}

    Basically, anything where a sub refers to a lexical defined outside of the sub.
