Several years ago, we combined the functionality of apr and apr-util, and that library no longer draws in sub-dependencies until specific components are necessary (dbm providers, dbd providers, crypto providers etc).
It seems overtime that we produce a release based on that effort, I'm offering in absence of other volunteers to prepare an -alpha candidate in mid-September. We don't work on the same clock as downstream distributors, so whatever effort we make in Sept won't see broad distribution until 2016. But if the httpd, svn and other consumers have successfully integrated with the 2.0 trunk/ development effort, it seems like this is a good time to begin to make that happen.
