I've posted 2 patches and listed several solutions to my bug # 29003. This bug is a feature request addressing the common issue where a module does not follow the standard naming of module source code names.. (mod_modulename.c), but instead use something else (sapi_apache2.c).
The first solution is to add an IfSymbol directive to search the symbol names of dynamically loaded modules. (via mod_so). The second is similar and patches IfModule to use an optional function to hook into mod_so's internal list of dynamically loaded modules as well. The third option is to create a STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF_NAMED macro which one can specify the filename to store in the module structure (instead of __FILE__). The last solution I saw was to create a function to register aliases that the ap_find_linked_module function will search as well as the module structure. (ie.. register mod_php4.c to point to sapi_apache2.c ). Let me know your thoughts on these ideas.. and any other are welcome. I currently have patches attached to the bug for solutions 1 through 3.
