So you want something like mod_perl but that isn't mod_perl?

There is something called FastCGI which you could look at.  I haven't used 
it, but it seems to be popular.  Supposedly its as fast as mod_perl, but 
it is less powerful (can't access all Apache features), though it may have 
the isolation thing.

Also, have you tried Apache 2 and mod_perl 2?  The former is fairly 
stable, apparently.  The latter is unfinished, but it may have what you 
need.

So what do you need exactly?
