Hi, Thanks for the advise; I also added a patch for the current trunk (updated 'bug' report).
Interesting fact you brought up about mass virtual hosting. I was thinking about this and theoretically I could write a module to handle this. With all my vh info stored in a database. This module would handle the requests and pull stuff from the database and store this in memory with some sort of timestamp and serve the files from there. When the timestamp expires, information again is pulled from the database etc. This way I would probably never need a graceful; right? Mmmm something to think about and maybe give a try when I have some free time on my hands. But for now I'd still really like to see this patch go in the trunk.

First impression: the patch makes sense. And now it's available on bugzilla for anyone who looks. But it's of limited applicability, because the problem it fixes is just one of many serious drawbacks of running large numbers of vhosts without using a mass-virtual-hosting solution. Getting it adopted depends on finding support amongst committers. In the case of a patch that isn't fixing a security issue or some howler of a bug, that's much more likely to happen in /trunk/ (and thence 2.2) than in 2.0. If there were patches against all three branches, there's a chance they'd all be applied. > If I need to alter the patch for this to happen, let me know. > > (ie did I use the correct variable naming, are the declarations in the > right header files etc.?)
