Hi!

nice to here about the port .. does it completly run ? 
Really: There are so much problems within the apache_core that
I can't believ it - I'll give it a try!

btw:
I allready did the port before (hoops)... but did not announce
it yet (too much changes within the apache_core and still some(times)
problem(s) ) - so I'm really interested.

I'll give you feedback!

Michael
