Quite possible, I just wasn't sure you have read that already.

try installing:

use Carp;
$SIG{__DIE__} = \&Carp::confess;

to see who called it. But most likely it's mod_perl that does the call 
(since it's ::handler).

Have you tried to search the archives for similar errors?

Any difference if you preload this module at server startup?

Try run with 'httpd -X' to reproduce it faster.
