Trouble is we've fought for binary compatibility over at the httpd project, too, which gives us pause if we are contemplating bumping to a later version of APR. At the minor bump of httpd, this is not an issue, but at a subversion bump there are deeper considerations. E.g. a build would load just find if confronted with apr 1.4 libs, but a build against 1.4 won't load against 1.3 or 1.2 at all. Bill
