I only building with the IDE, it embeds the manifests auto.

For a command-line build I should advise:

Do not clutter the makefiles with specific VC2005 stuff,
but use a .bat file to embed the manifests, so no external manifest files:

manifestVC2005.bat

mt -manifest ab.exe.manifest -outputresource:ab.exe;1
mt -manifest httpd.exe.manifest -outputresource:httpd.exe;1
mt -manifest rotatelogs.exe.manifest -outputresource:rotatelogs.exe;1
...
...
mt -manifest mod_actions.so.manifest -outputresource:mod_actions.so;1
mt -manifest mod_alias.so.manifest -outputresource:mod_alias.so;1
...
...
etc. etc.

What trouble? All the libraries/exe's have a post build step that does this.

Going back to a virgin unpack of the -src.zip - can you point out the exact
issue you encountered?

Nevermind - I see we apparently haven't finished backporting the .manifest
work from SVN trunk/ (the 2.3 development branch).

I *really* like your hack Gustavo :)

Steffan - given that you aren't having issues either, which hack did you use
for the .manifest data?
