Changes with Apache 1.3b6
+ *) Now src/Configure uses a fallback strategy for the shared object support
+ on platforms where no explicit information is available: If a Perl
+ installation exists we ask it about its shared object support and if
it's
+ the dlopen-style one we shamelessly guess the compiler and linker flags
+ for creating shared objects from Perls knowledge. Of course, the user is
+ warning about what we are doing and informed that he should send us
+ the guessed flags when they work. [Ralf S. Engelschall]
+
*) Provide APACI --without-support option to be able to disable the build
and installation of the support tools from the src/support/ area.
Although its useful to have these installed per default we should
provide
