It's as portable as 'httpd -V'. If someone builds with a patched httpd that does not print a the sever version with this option, then the script will fail. On the other hand, if we don't backport this change, the OSX tests on the 1.9.x branch will keep failing indefinitely because (a) 'configure' reports the wrong version of httpd, and (b) the 1.9.x tests do not have the concept of an httpd version whitelist. IMO it's more important to have reliable test results on supported branches than to support unlikely patches that people might come up with. -- Brane
