------------------------------------
+1
Please commit this to trunk with an appropriate log message
(https://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/conventions#log-messages).
For future reference, please send patches to dev@; we don't use jira this way.
+1 for backport, assuming it merges cleanly.
Cheers,
Daniel

> *mod_authz_svn.c* and *mod_dav_svn.c* add keys to *r->notes* to memorize
> boolean states (*FORCE_AUTHN_NOTE*, *IN_SOME_AUTHN_NOTE*,
> *authz_svn-anon-ok*, *NO_MAP_TO_STORAGE_NOTE*). They use _(const char*)1_ as
> values for the keys. This causes any call to *apr_table_clone* for *r->notes*
> to crash with a SEGFAULT, because _(const char*)1_ is an invalid address.
> *mod_http2* in httpd calls *apr_table_clone* for *r->notes* and hence the
> httpd process crashes. The attached patch (against trunk) replaces the value
> of _(const char*)1_ in these cases with a value of _"1"_.
