maybe if mod_access_compat is included by default statically into httpd
itself? (unless explicitly disabled)
we could make it optional in 2.6 (and remove docs on it), and remove in
2.8 or something. this will give people plenty of time to switch over.

But David, you should really just be including mod_access_compat. I
think there are plenty of people here who are going to vote against
any release of 2.4 unless configurations like the one above work out
of the box with mod_access_compat included. So if you are having
problems, it is better to identify them now.
I have been using the compat module (which actually worked this time)
but I've run into a SIGBUS or SIGILL (latter if not debug build) using
the module.
Also, unless there is an "upgrade" path that make sense, is well
documented and tested the new auth stuff might as well never have been
added.
The last set of auth changes left a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths
- shall we try and avoid that this time round?
