lorks , that sounds so very very wrong . 
have a good read of the online docs , they are very good and you will
know the answer the next time you need to do this . see. ScriptAlias 

> #AddHandler cgi-script .pl .cgi

uncommenting this would probably help , apache will ( sensibly ) only run
files through a perl intepreter if you actually tell it to.

> #AddType application/x-perl .pl

dunno what that is , best leave it commented as i suspect that is what
is causing the file to be server instead of interpreted.

Check you have the correct modules loadad in your apache.
