For what it's worth, I have consistent success in using $r->finfo to 
tell Apache the final destination. In the case that $you_want_to_hook 
(below) is false, Apache will also serve the intended file. The timing 
used is:

PerlMapToStorageHandler

   $r->filename($path); # where $path is an absolute file-system path
   $r->finfo(APR::Finfo::stat($path, APR::Const::FINFO_NORM, $r->pool));
   return Apache2::Const::OK;

PerlFixupHandler

   if ($you_want_to_hook) {
     $r->push_handlers(PerlResponseHandler => \&_response_handler);
     $r->handler('modperl');
     return Apache2::Const::OK;
   }
