What would have been so bad with mod_perl?

According to its documentation, this appears to be the most advanced language module for Apache, providing integration of Perl at all levels: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html

Also, Perl has a huge standard library. So what's the issue with Perl, compared to PHP?

I have no huge grudge against PHP, but I'd also like really to see an answer to this.
