It does not:

Apache log:

[Mon May 23 14:05:47 2005] [error] [client 10.149.82.49] Options
ExecCGI is off in this directory: C:/Documents and Settings/BHicks/My
Documents/websites/LIVE/reports/test.cgi

403 Forbidden:

You don't have permission to access /reports/test.cgi on this server.

I do have the "AddHandler cgi-script .cgi" uncommented in the
httpd.conf and "Options +ExecCGI" is in my site conf.

I am using the example snippet from the perldocs for mod_perl as the
test script:

my $r =3D Apache2::RequestUtil->request;
$r->content_type("text/html");
$r->send_http_header;
$r->print("mod_perl rules!");

If I change the conf file to this:

    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
    PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
    Options +ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

I now get the following error in the Apache2 log file:

[Mon May 23 14:11:37 2005] [error] Can't locate object method
"send_http_header" via package "Apache2::RequestRec" at (eval 5) line
5.\n

Sorry if this is long, and I am so ignorant.  :  \
