Well from what I can tell from just looking at 1.3.24, they STILL 
haven't included the patch.

I'm sure I already submitted the patch sometime ago, 14 Nov 2000, old 
bug database number 6841, and its STILL open.

I figure if they can't address a one line patch when it was submitted 
then, why should I keep pushing for something only to be ignored. 
Obviously someone doesn't think my input is worth anything or that my 
patch breaks something else. I figured I was doing my part by submitting 
the bug in the first place.

Oh hum.

 >Description:
A user reported a bug against mod_throttle claiming that mod_throttle 
failed to
record the number of bytes sent when the request passed through mod_proxy.
Apon debugging and examination of the mod_proxy source, I found that
ap_proxy_send_fb() tracked and returned the number of bytes received/sent,
but that NO ONE made use of the return value to update the request_rec's
bytes_sent field.

Find enclosed a one line change to src/modules/proxy/proxy_util.c that 
updates
the request_rec.

By making the change in ap_proxy_send_fb(), http and ftp response from the
remote server or from the cache will all correctly update the request_rec
so that other modules can make use of this information in the logging phase.
