apr-util has not yet been updated to use the same configure methods as the other stuff. I meant to do that last week but got sidetracked by a customer issue that turned into a 3rd-party library issue that turned into a "how can servlets be this f*cked-up?" issue and hence is now a JSR issue. ;-) It is hard to make that change without doing major rework, but feel free to hack it if you want to -- I'll just work around it when I can. What needs to happen is apr-util should be building apr and importing its variables just like httpd is doing to apr now, and then httpd should be switched to just build apr-util and import variables from apr-util rather than apr. ....Roy
