On one of our platforms, the latest resolver library is libbind
(from BIND-9.4.1-P1 with --enable-libbind), while the system's
libresolv is much older. WOuld it not be preferable to use a
recent lib (libbind) instead of an older (less capable and less
secure) one?
The patch is something like...
diff -burp httpd-2.2.6-rHEAD.orig/srclib/apr/configure.in work/httpd-2.2.6-rHE!
