Simple perl question

[Israel Brewster <israel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know if what I am trying to do here is even possible (sane?)  
but I thought I'd ask. I am running Apache 1.3.29 on an OpenBSD 4.0  
system, with Apache chrooted to /var/www. I have a perl script CGI  
(it has the .cgi extention, not .pl, but is actually a perl script)  
that I need to run. Currently, the script is written to run using the  
system perl interpreter, with the first line of the script being #!/ 
usr/bin/perl This obviously doesn't work, since when it runs as a CGI  
it is chrooted to /var/www, and can not see /usr/bin. Now I would  
think that Apache should be able to run this script using the perl  
module, which I have installed, but I can't seem to get it to work.  
Could someone point me to something that tells me how to properly  
enable/run perl scripts in Apache? I looked at mod_perl website, but  
all it says is to add a code block like the following:

Alias /perl/ /home/httpd/perl/
  PerlModule Apache::Registry
  <Location /perl>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Apache::Registry
    Options ExecCGI
    allow from all
    PerlSendHeader On
  </Location>

which just gives me an 'Invalid command 'PerlModule' This would imply  
to me that mod_perl isn't being loaded, in spite of being installed,  
but that leaves me needing to know how to load the perl module.  
Adding a line like LoadModule mod_perl /usr/local/lib/mod_perl.so  
(which is the correct path to the mod_perl.so file) just gives me a  
"Can't locate API module structure `mod_perl' in file /usr/local/lib/ 
mod_perl.so: Unable to resolve symbol" What am I missing here? How  
can I get Apache to run perl scripts? Thanks for any assistance that  
can be provided
