If you look at old version multiple modules has the same base address
which was probably caused by simple copy/paste.
Eg, multiple dbd modules had the same base address (0x6EF00000)
dmb modules had the same address as dbd modules.

I only made sure they are unique, because if you try to load the
second dll with the same base address it'll get random one.

Changes rel. 1.3.12 I observed:

base address 0x6EF00000 -> 0x6EF60000 apr_dbd_freetds.dsp
base address 0x6EF00000 -> 0x6F000000 apr_dbm_db.dsp
base address 0x6EF10000 -> 0x6F010000 apr_dbm_gdbm.dsp


Right, as you see apr_dbd_freetds and apr_dbm_db had the
same base address.
apr_dbm_gdbm had the same address as apr_dbd_odbc module.

That was wrong at the first place, so hardly any regression.
