Take a look here: http://www.apache.org/~aaron/httpd-2.1.0-rc1/ I made these tarballs early last week. Once I get some feedback on this (whether it works for anyone else, since it works for me on linux 2.4 i386, linux 2.4 amd64 (opteron), and Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther)) I'll encorporate any new changes and cut another tarball. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. :) -aaron
