    Backport of r1728971 from 1.5.x.

Is 1.4.x maintained?

The release of 1.5.x introduced an ABI-compatible replacement of 1.4.x.
The last release of 1.4.x was in March, 2012, with the release of 1.5.0
following on August, 2012.

I'd prefer we treat the 1.4.x and prior branches closed upon the successful
release of the compatible successor to that prior release, as there is no
apparent interest in actually releasing code from the 1.4.x branch.  We
now have 2.x trunk, apr-util 1.5.x head and apr 1.6.x and 1.5.x branches
to maintain as it is.

I last raised this question on 22 Dec '15 in response to
Subject: Re: [PATCH] Prevent huge pool allocations for small requests.

but it seems this discussion has not yet picked up.

The same now. I guess no response here means we can deprecate 1.4, because there's no real interest in maintaining it.

Since the above change needs a followup change and is not a security change, I plan to revert it instead.

Rainer
