While that is true, the difference is actually rather more significant
than that.  mod_perl only works with apache-1.3.x and mod_perl2 only
works with apache-2.x.  mod_perl2 is still considered a development
version, which is why the version number is 1.99rNN -- only once it's
achieved production quality will it be released as version 2.0.
