I believe you've missed the Content-Type header. Not the HTTP-Equiv one, but the real header one, which is required by most CGI-powered Web servers by default.
Try to put this at the top of the script.
echo -e "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"
And try to get more information if you post again. The part of the Apache error log maybe which describes the error rather than the generic "Internal Server Error" message. And you're sure your Web server really is taught to interpret shell scripts as CGI scripts properly?

http::server::simple::cgi
HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI(3pm)
NAME
HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI - CGI.pm-style version of HTTP::Server::Simple
DESCRIPTION
HTTP::Server::Simple was already simple, but some smart-ass pointed out that there is no CGI in HTTP, and so this module was born to
isolate the CGI.pm-related parts of this handler.
accept_hook
The accept_hook in this sub-class clears the environment to the start-up state.
post_setup_hook
Initializes the global CGI object, as well as other environment settings.
cgi_class [Classname]
Gets or sets the class to use for creating the $cgi object passed to "handle_request".
Called with a single argument, it sets the coderef. Called with no arguments, it returns this field's current value.
To provide an initialization subroutine to be run in the post_setup_hook, see "cgi_init".
e.g.
$server->cgi_class('CGI');
$server->cgi_init(sub {
require CGI;
CGI::initialize_globals();
});
or, if you want to use CGI::Simple,
$server->cgi_class('CGI::Simple');
$server->cgi_init(sub {
require CGI::Simple;
});
cgi_init [CODEREF]
A coderef to run in the post_setup_hook.
Called with a single argument, it sets the coderef. Called with no arguments, it returns this field's current value.
setup
This method sets up CGI environment variables based on various meta-headers, like the protocol, remote host name, request path, etc.
See the docs in HTTP::Server::Simple for more detail.
handle_request CGI
This routine is called whenever your server gets a request it can handle.
It's called with a CGI object that's been pre-initialized. You want to override this method in your subclass
handler
Handler implemented as part of HTTP::Server::Simple API
