My main objections to nuking threaded have been solved, namely:

* worker loosing connections when the queue fills up, and
* worker screwing up a graceful restart.

I've heard that the other scalable web server on OS/390 (Lotus Domino
Go) has gone back to a model more like threaded.  IIRC this has
something to do with easily keeping processor affinity between the
accept thread and the worker when there's a crypto coprocessor.  But we
have a long way to go before this becomes a concern for Apache.

So +1 on removing threaded.
