Well, that doesn't matter to our external projects. (And, huh, it's already named like that for me when it's installed.)


2) It assumes bundled apr will be apr-1. We want to make find_apr.m4
independent of apr version, so that in the future, it could be installed
into a system aclocal directory (thanks to noahmcit on #apr for pointing
this out).

No, that doesn't matter: if you want to assume bundled APR is less than 1.0, use the same find_ap{ru}.m4 you are right now.


3) It only implements "accept apr-0 or apr-1", but unless projects do extra
compatibility work, and make sure to *never* expose the apr ABI in their own
ABI, they will want "accept apr-0 only" or "accept apr-1 only".

Again, not a concern at all. If you want to accept apr-0 *only*, then don't upgrade to this find_ap{ru}.m4.


It's not like all of the projects would magically upgrade to this: they have to choose to upgrade to this m4 version. -- justin
