Another update is available before new features will be introduced (in 2.2.8):
mod_ssl 2.2.7 for Apache 1.3.6. This version mainly contains support for the
MSIE client workaround. Additionally some memory leaks were fixed. The next
version (2.2.8) will introduce shared memory support for EAPI together with a
high-performance shared memory based session cache (is already implemented and
works fine, but needs some more cleanups and testing).

Changes with mod_ssl 2.2.7 (24-Mar-1999 to 29-Mar-1999)
*) Fixed the ``HTTPS request received for child'' log entries: Now no
longer multiple copies of a message occur, because mod_ssl logs them
only on initial requests (and no longer on sub-requests and internal
redirects).
*) Fixed a few more memory leaks which occured on server restarts.
*) Added entry to the FAQ for the MSIE work-around with
``SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown''.
*) Added support for two SetEnvIf variables: ssl-unclean-shutdown and
ssl-accurate-shutdown. These can be used to for instance force different
shutdown approaches for particular browsers. An ``SetEnvIf User-Agent
".*MSIE.*" ssl-unclean-shutdown'' now forces the old mod_ssl 2.1
behaviour where no close notify messages are sent at all before
connection close. An ``SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*Lynx.*"
ssl-accurate-shutdown'' forces an accurate shutdown when the client is
Lynx+OpenSSL where mod_ssl both sends it's close notify alert and waits
for the close notify alert of the client.
*) Updated source file dependecies in src/modules/ssl/Makefile.tmpl.
