You should also be able to

<Perl>
{
  package Something::That::Does::Not::Start::With::Apache2::ReadConfig;
  use Socket;
}
</Perl>

The point is, everything in %Apache2::ReadConfig:: is passed to the
httpd as configuration.

The default package for <Perl> sections is
Apache2::ReadConfig::path::to::config::file_conf::line_NNN given the
file containing the <Perl> section is /path/to/config/file.conf and the
line following the opening <Perl> directive is NNN.
