The newest mod_perl requires Apache::SizeLimit, which requires Linux::Pid on linux systems. Linux::Pid is an Inline::C module. Inline::C is problematic on web servers because often people don't want to install compilers on publicly-facing servers--not doing so is one step toward tighter security. Fortunately, this is the easiest XS project you could find. Attached is an implementation in XS instead of Inline::C. Would you mind implementing it that way instead and putting out a CPAN release of it? Let me know what you think. Thanks!
