I tried to look for that, but abandoned after a short while not finding

Guess whether I have the right to do that.
All of this is buried under a deep layer of opaque wrappers installed

For now, I decided to give a try to TWiki without mod_perl, and to 
come back to mod_perl later...
The reason I do this on cygwin on my laptop, is that my IT support won't
