Changes with mod_ssl 2.2.5 (04-Mar-1999 to 18-Mar-1999)
*) Fixed the POST-problem where kept-alive HTTPS connections hang or
resulted in an I/O error inside the browser because the ``SSL close
notify'' alert couldn't be sent correctly because of Apache's internal
``lingering close'' handling. EAPI was changed to now correctly call the
close_connection module hook also on timeout and linger closes. This
EAPI change means you cannot upgrade your libssl.so with --with-apxs to
this version. A complete Apache rebuild with the updated EAPI code is
necessary.
