Are you running httpd chroot'ed?

If not, I just installed a stock i386 -current box yesterday with 
HTML::Mason, and used these lines in my httpd.conf:

PerlModule HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler
PerlModule Apache::DBI

<LocationMatch "(\.html|\.txt|\.pl)$">
   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlHandler HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler
   PerlSetVar MasonAllowGlobals $dbh
</LocationMatch>

<LocationMatch "(\.m(html|txt|pl)|dhandler|autohandler)$">
   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlInitHandler Apache::Constants::NOT_FOUND
</LocationMatch>

Which works just fine over here.  Don't forget to add '-u' to 
httpd_flags in /etc/rc.conf though!
