Hi Joe,

I used .cgim extension for this to reflect mod_perl

I don't have access to an example from a more recent server but this is 
how I made .cgim's under one site work.  It might help you.

<Directory /htdocs/example.org/html/>
   <Files ~ "\.cgim$">
     SetHandler perl-script
     PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun
     #PerlHandler Apache::Registry
     Options +ExecCGI
     PerlSendHeader On
     PerlInitHandler Apache::StatINC
     PerlSetVar StatINC_Debug 1
   </Files>
</Directory>

regards,
