I will be T&R'ing 1.3.34 On Tues or Weds

May I humbly request inclusion of a patch I wrote almost a year ago?

|31858|New|Maj|2004-10-22|regular expression matching broken on amd64 It is not a feature request; it fixes a crashing bug on AMD64.
This has been discussed, has been validated, and is included in
Gentoo (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70177) and probably
other distributions.

BTW, if the ASF is looking for help better maintaining the 1.3 tree,
I am sure that there are a few people on this list, myself included,
who would volunteer.

Help is always welcome, but as we approach 2.2 (meaning 2.0-final), we
draw closer and closer to EOL for Apache 1.3 support.  Sure, it will
probably be still supported for security holes (considering all the very
interesting oddball architectures that aren't supported by our libtool
friends) - but will it be any more frequent than 1x to 2x a year?
Not likely :)
