See bugzilla id #8464 for details, but currently in 2.0.36 you cannot
specify command-line arguments to an external rewrite program, thus:
RewriteMap "prg:/path/to/my/engine -arg1 -arg2"
This was valid in 1.3.24, as it exec'd a shell with the "-c
/path/to/my/engine -arg1 -arg2" arguments.
Hopefully this patch should enable us to be able to supply command-line
arguments to our external program again, negating the need for a shell
script wrapper and meaning the configuration is all in httpd.conf.
Cheers,
JT
