The code that you can use in [perl] and [calc] blocks is different from 
what is used in the core.  This is because [perl] blocks are subject to 
safe hole restrictions.  In your code above you would use %$CGI instead 
of %CGI::values:

while (my ($key, $value) = each %$CGI) {
     ...
}

For a list of perl variables you can use in [perl] and [calc] blocks and 
their equivalents in the core see:
