Yes I replied to that, but only a few mins before your message appeared 
so you probably weren't able to see it. The problem manifests under both 
persistent (mod_perl & CGI::App::Server) and non-persistent 
(WWW::Mechanize) envs.

A circular ref sounds like an interesting possibility though - how would 
I track something like that down?
