This works for us:
<VirtualHost 10.228.xxx.xxx>
    ServerName xxxxxx.rwc.uc.edu
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/rt3/share/html
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    PerlModule Apache2 Apache::compat
    PerlModule Apache::DBI
    PerlRequire /usr/local/rt3/bin/webmux.pl
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1/index.html
    RedirectMatch permanent (.*)/$ $1/index.html
    <Location />
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlHandler RT::Mason
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Have you upgraded perl and not recompiled Apache::DBI?
