*Distribution specific* The ASF does not control which patches a distribution chooses to back-port or the version scheme they choose to adopt. If you want exactly the software as provided by the ASF then you'll need to get it from the ASF. Distros do have some flexibility (within well defined limits) on what they distribute.
