You should have this from the libapreq2 package.  My install gives me
access to those modules and I didn't do anything special.  If you do a
listing of the files ('equery f libapreq2') does it show any of the
files that you're looking for?

My results:
naked alan # equery f libapreq2 | grep Cookie
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/APR/Request/Cookie.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/APR/Request/Cookie.pod
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/Apache2/Cookie.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/auto/APR/Request/Cookie
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/auto/APR/Request/Cookie/Cookie.bs
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/auto/APR/Request/Cookie/Cookie.so
/usr/share/man/man3/APR::Request::Cookie.3pm.bz2
/usr/share/man/man3/Apache2::Cookie.3pm.bz2

As an aside, to install arbitrary perl modules (which may or may not
already have ebuilds) you can use the 'g-cpan' command.  

IE: g-cpan -i Foo::Bar

That'll ebuild-ify the module and install it, very slick!

Hope that helps.
