How can we programmatically figure out when to add the -u flag? If we
can't then we can add APACHE_TEST_HTTPD_OPTIONS env var, which you can
set to -u.
we already have APACHE_TEST_EXTRA_ARGS which will do this :)
rats... sorry, APACHE_TEST_EXTRA_ARGS is for A-T, not invoking httpd. eesh :)
while it doesn't solve problems for anyone running A-T for the first time
(such as when installing via CPAN), +1 to supporting this option as well,
just in case people find it useful.
time to shutdown the computer for the weekend...
