As previously identified and familiar to all who are working with httpd trunk, httpd has not compiled against apr trunk in about 6 years.
It seems time to evict the component from httpd core, given that it is neither supportable or maintainable. The ABI contract offered by APR, of no external header dependencies, no binary dependencies, and all the rest were never observed by the porters or authors. Made well aware of this, they chose a flamewar over actually solving the deficiencies, and in the subsequent years, repaired none of the defects. Offered an entirely workable httpd-specific solution to resolve the issues, maintainer vetoed it. It seems overdue to drop this component from core on trunk, until it actually functions again. I'll let this dialog run for 2 weeks. Thoughts? Bill
