Yes, that's what I was getting at: there's no request during startup
when your httpd.conf is being processes, so there's no $r object to
get.

I don't use this config stuff at all, but looking in the docs I think
this might work for you:

use Apache2::ServerUtil ();
$s = Apache2::ServerUtil->server;
$s->add_config($config);
