You'll need to do some debugging on your code. The things that are
most likely to be different in a persistent environment like mod_perl
are environment variables, your current directory, the user you're
running as (file permission problems often show up this way), CHECK
and INIT blocks, or assumptions in the code about -M filetests.
There's a good summary here:

You may be able to tell what it's trying to do by using tools like
strace. If not, I'd suggest you either contact the author of the C
code or hire a consultant who knows C to help you with this.
