Global not always global?

I am moving my site to a new host. Although I thought I had
it 
originally setup in a portable fashion, I have had to make
changes in my 
code to allow for a different environment. One problem I
have had is this:

At the top of global.asa (not inside any subs) I have the
line:

our ($base_url, $Form); # running on perl 5.8.5


inside the Script_OnStart event I have:

$base_url = 'http://url/to/site';


Correct me if I'm wrong: This scalar should be global to all
the scripts 
on my site, yes?

I only have one StateDir and Global directory. I'm not
trying to run 
more than one ASP application, or share anything. Just one
website 
running with one global.asa, etc. It is still working fine
on my old 
host this way.

As soon as I try to use $base_url in another script, I get
the following 
error:

error including default.inc, not compiled: maybe use strict
error: 
Variable "$base_url" is not imported at
/home/xxxxxx/asp/default.inc 
line 22. , /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/Apache/ASP.pm line
1521

In .htaccess I have StatINC set to 1 until I can get all the
bugs worked 
out. Does that have any affect on this?

This is the only thing that stands out for me.  I wouldn't
expect things 
like globals to work if you don't set up Apache::ASP in the
main 
httpd.conf file, or some file it directly includes. 
Per-directory 
configuration should only be used for overrides, not global
behavior.
