It's not even a wrapper in mp2, it's just an accessor to the r->bytes_sent 
record entry:

apr_off_t
bytes_sent(obj, val=0)
     Apache2::RequestRec obj
     apr_off_t val

     PREINIT:
     /*nada*/


     CODE:
     RETVAL = (apr_off_t) obj->bytes_sent;

     if (items > 1) {

          obj->bytes_sent = (apr_off_t) val;
     }

     OUTPUT:
     RETVAL

So you should probably ask at httpd-dev, Markus.

Same here:

int
status(obj, val=0)
     Apache2::RequestRec obj
     int val

     PREINIT:
     /*nada*/


     CODE:
     RETVAL = (int) obj->status;

     if (items > 1) {

          obj->status = (int) val;
     }

     OUTPUT:
     RETVAL
