Take this as an observation about proposals in general, nothing wrong with this
one in particular:
*) mod_proxy_hcheck: Honor checks in Vhosts w/o hanging
trunk patch: http://svn.apache.org/r1784203
http://svn.apache.org/r1784205
http://svn.apache.org/r1784227
http://svn.apache.org/r1784228
http://svn.apache.org/r1784275
http://svn.apache.org/r1785871
http://svn.apache.org/r1786009
http://svn.apache.org/r1789387
2.4.x patch: trunk works *after r1779573 above* (modulo CHANGES)
ie:
http://home.apache.org/~ylavic/patches/httpd2.4-hcheck-after-r1779573.patch
FULL hcheck patch:
http://home.apache.org/~jim/patches/httpd2.4-hcheck.patch
http://svn.apache.org/r1789387
(includes all hcheck related patches, including showstopper)

So, how to check this? I tried the FULL hcheck patch. It does not work, ~50% of
hunks fail.
Ok, revert. Then I just tried this:
svn merge -c
1784203,1784205,1784227,1784228,1784275,1785871,1786009,1789387
^/httpd/httpd/trunk .
and all is well! So, the proposal could have been written as:
*) mod_proxy_hcheck: Honor checks in Vhosts w/o hanging
svn merge -c
1784203,1784205,1784227,1784228,1784275,1785871,1786009,1789387
^/httpd/httpd/trunk .
+1: jim, ylavic
Wouldn't that be easier? I mean, sometimes trunk and backport may differ a lot.
But most commonly, only CHANGES and message-tags need to be ignored. I myself
would prefer just to copy&exec a one liner.
just saying (while the active hcheck runs in my proxy tests flawlessly),
