With this patch, we now implement RFC2428, which was my only hesitation to at least throwing out an alpha release for users to experiment with. However it does need a bit of love in the proxy IP comparisons to tolerate the more bizzare aspects of IPV6_MAPPED_IPV4 addresses, and perhaps decode the ::n.n.n.n form into a pure ipv6 form for proxy IP comparison. There are some remaining build questions, such as how to make it simpler to build/install from the /top level/ of the package but still using apxs for simplicity (instead of descending into modules/ftp and invoking make -f Makefile.apxs there); as well we need to ensure it plugs in very smoothly if they want to simply unpack on top of httpd, without reinvoking buildconf, of course. But does anyone have other concerns before we prepare to release a first alpha version here of the module? Bill
