yes.  i saw that, but it was primarily concerned with thawing objects  
(i *assumed* the hooks are there because of issues in thawing, not  
serializing).
my issue was that i couldn't get a rosedb object to serialize at all  
using apache session -- which by default uses storable.

no, its tied heavily into mp and a custom framework which would be  
damn near impossible to pull out

i think what i'm going to do is this:
        loop the resultset and store the data into my session
        stash the rosedb item in my context object if called with a special  
flag
        
it'd be best not to have the rdb-object in a session anyways.  i try  
to keep session data into a structure that has pure data and can  
serialize into json/yaml, as i often need to share between mod_perl  
and python or php.
