Core module means it will be installed by default in v5.6. But what happens in case of lower versions of perl ?

One of the solution is to add a web server specific branch in httpd_is_ready(). So, if the server is plackup it loads the module and checks the port, if not it will just continue.

Just an Idea for a common usage.
