Hmmmm.  How would the high-level integration look like?

 - we add contrib/mongoose/*;

 - in t/Makefile, we:

   . set GIT_TEST_HTTPD to yes, unless it is already set to another value;

   . set LIB_HTTPD_PATH to $GIT_BUILD_DIR/contrib/mongoose/mongoose,
     unless it is already set to another value;

   . if LIB_HTTPD_PATH is set to our mongoose and if it hasn't been
     built, go ../contrib/mongoose and build it.

 - we teach lib-httpd.sh to trigger the DEFAULT_HTTPD_PATH
   computation when LIB_HTTPD_PATH is set to 'system-apache', so
   that people can test with their installed apache if they choose
   to; and

 - we teach lib-httpd.sh to write out an appropriate configuration
   for the mongoose server.

That would force people to run http tests by turning it from an
opt-in option to an opt-out option.

Or were you thinking about embedding mongoose in the git executable?
