Based on my experience, there are 4 gotchas that need to be looked at. First, go through the httpd.conf and replace
PerlModule Apache::SomeCoreModule with

mod_perl : Change
mod_perl to
mod_perl2. Third, has CGI been upgraded? Fourth, the one that I always seem to forget---you'll have to set the environmental variable for mod_perl:
$ENV{MOD_PERL_API_VERSION} to the version that you are using
