Typically a best practice is to make the class object-oriented and 
provide accessors for changing class variables, thus allowing them to 
be lexical:

my $class_foo;

sub set_foo { $class_foo = pop }

Only there are some helper modules to make this easier, inheritable, 
etc.  I'm getting into Moose these days and I like it, although I 
haven't used it with mod_perl.
