Now, the down sides:
* APR 1.0 would be incompatible with APR 0.9. If any httpd APIs use apr_off_t (and I'm pretty sure that some do), then httpd 2.x becomes stuck at APR 0.9. Similarly, if any svn 1.0 APIs use apr_off_t (currently a matter of debate), then svn 1.x becomes stuck at APR 0.9. (Subversion developers who are reading this should take note: regardless of whether APR accepts my proposal, svn 1.x will experience less pain if it avoids using apr_off_t in its API. The redundant svn_offset_t type would be much less of a headache than being stuck at APR 0.9.)
httpd 2.x is already stuck at APR 0.9 because of the API changes (deprecated functions being removed and so forth) in APR 1.0.
