Create an instance in an init handler and stash it in $r->notes. Write procedural wrappers which retrieve that instance and call the appropriate methods. That instance will only exist for the lifetime of the one request.
Addendum: This also has the advantage of allowing new code to access the already existent instance and call the methods directly as well (either by using an already existing request record or by using Apache->request->notes).
Update: Ooop, as is pointed out below I meant pnotes which lets you store an arbitrary perl value. That's what one gets after getting spoiled by HTML::Mason doing everything for you. :)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
