Those are for rejecting requests, not mapping them to handlers. I
would either use mod_rewrite to map the GET requests to a different
location, or make a PerlTransHandler to deal with it.

Right, that would be the TransHandler approach.

You can set the handler for the current request from within the
script. Take a look at the docs for examples. I know you'll find
some if you search for "default-handler" in the mail archives too.
