I agree, that seems unlikely, although I don't know much about
mod_perl.

The error message seems to be saying that it can't find defparams.pl.
Given that defparams.pl is right there in your Bugzilla directory, and
has suitable permissions to be read by the Perl process, and parses
correctly as Perl, I'm a little stumped.  It could be the Perl include
path @INC, but nothing in the P4DTI patch touches that.

I still can't reproduce this at all, so I'm dependent on you to debug
it.  Try breaking the patch down manually; see if you can identify
which part of the patch breaks things.  Start by reverting
defparams.pl.
