Don't know why it *had* worked, but

  use Apache2::RequestRec ();     # pulls in content_type()
  use Apache2::RequestIO ();      # pulls in print()

is missing here.

One of the first things I did several years ago when I started with
modperl2 was to define this bash alias:

  alias mp2lookup='perl -MModPerl::MethodLookup -e print_method'

Now, if I don't know which module defines which method I can ask:

$ mp2lookup print
There is more than one class with method 'print'
try one of:
        use Apache2::Filter ();
        use Apache2::RequestIO ();
