Hi all,
There has been some thoughts to "adopt" the Win9xConHook from 1.3 branch. I
even posted the patch last month and Bill already put the Win9xConHook to
CVS.
Now, I have some doubts if this is the right way to go, and here is why:
Apache2 already has a service monitor thread (monitor_service_9x_thread),
but the problem with it is that it is called prior the
mpm_start_child_control_handler and IMO that is why the console window stays
open.
The other thing I can't figure out is why the winnt_post_config hook is
called twice?
The patch only calls FreeConsole and the logoff and shutdown events are
handled without nasty "Could Close APACHE" message.

SetConsoleCtrlHandler(child_control_handler, TRUE);
atexit(stop_child_console_handler);
}
Now, IMO there is no need for Win9xConHook because monitor_service_9x_proc
already handles that.
