Bug#684290: Unable to use Apache2::SizeLimit

After upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy, I'm unable to use my mod_perl
based application again. Apache's error log shows

[Mon May 06 08:36:18 2013] [error] [client 192.168.0.202] failed to
resolve handler `Apache2::SizeLimit': You must install Linux::Pid for
Apache::SizeLimit to work on your platform.
at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache/SizeLimit/Core.pm line 128.\nBEGIN
failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache/SizeLimit/Core.pm
line 171.\nCompilation failed in require
at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache2/SizeLimit.pm line 48.\nBEGIN
failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache2/SizeLimit.pm line
48.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 1489) line 2.\n

Application works fine after removing the reference to
Apache2::SizeLimit in Apache's configuration file and restarting.
Working without Apache2::SizeLimit makes it very hard to control the
resource consumption of the mod_perl application, so it's not an
acceptable workaround.
