Randy, can you please move this item to 2.0/user/troubleshooting.pod? This
problem is mod_perl 2.0-specific and not specific to win32. Thanks.

Also it's probably a good idea to specify which is the minimal CGI.pm
version that they should be good with.

Something like this in the run time section

=head2 Can't find Apache.pm

You need to install at least version XXX of CGI.pm to use under mod_perl 2.0.

Thanks Stas - I added that to the troubleshooting section. I
thought it an idea though for the time being to also leave it
mentioned in the Win32 section, as judging by some emails I get,
some find it hard to believe problems they have aren't Win32
specific ...

But that's why it has the link to the main troubleshooting section.

In fact I think the 'See also' section should read:

"If you haven't found a solution for your problem in this document please
check the main troubleshooting document, where non-win32 specific problems
and their solutions are listed."

In that case there is no reason to duplicate items, since it'll make the
reader check two documents.

I'd also add a link to 'See also' (which is at the bottom of doc) at the
beginning of the document, in the second para of the description.

Finally I suggest to drop the link to 1.0's troubleshooting doc, since
it's pretty much irrelevant and just will make the reader more confused
and lost.

Hope that this is cool with you, Randy. More space and clear separation
for 1.0 and 2.0 sections will hopefully be helpfull to our readers.
