Is this a possibility for you? From 'perldoc mod_perl'

~       PerlRequire  perl-scripts/script_to_load_at_startup.pl

~       A PerlRequire file is commonly used for intialization dur­
~       ing server startup time.  A PerlRequire file name can be
~       absolute or relative to ServerRoot or a path in @INC.   A
~       PerlRequire'd file must return a true value, i.e., the end
~       of this file should have a:

~        1; #return true value

~       See eg/startup.pl for an example to start with.

For myself, I won't say that doing it that way will definitely cause
problems, but I won't endorse it, either.  I'm going to play it
conservative and just say, "Your mileage may vary."  Calling init() with
the same config information isn't the best, performance-wise, and it's
kind of outside the bounds of our design/conception.  Unless Mike has
something better to say about it, that is...
