I can only have one Apache::Request installed in my site_lib.

Given that, if the Apache::Request that comes with MP2 is *not* upward
compatible with the one released independently on the CPAN (for
Apache1 and MP1), then it needs to have a different name.  Why is this
so hard to understand or comply with?

Please.  Just do the right thing.  Create Apache2::Request or
something.
