Is there a need to bundle APR at all?
Yep, let's draw a line under that. APR is a dependency,
not a component.
I assume that there still is a mechanism corresponding to
--with-included-apr? On a distro with bundled APR version X that httpd
dislikes (or more commonly, that contains bugs that has been fixed in
newer releases that aren't considered a security update for the
distro) I find it very convenient to be able to install httpd without
having to jump through hoops pointing out which APR
devel/runtime-stuff it should use.
So, while APR (and stuff) are indeed dependencies I find
--build-with-known-good-dependency-stuff very useful.
