I should have pointed out that if the sizeof() is well known, and we know of/expect developers to allocate it for themselves, then we would have to have a major bump; as long as httpd has an allocator for the structure (which observes the now-current sizeof()) then we are fine :) This really makes me pause and consider; we really need an accessor to define the version/length of specific apache defined structures; low-level modules can check if they need to know they are compatible. Good change for Apache 2.2's API? Bill
