Hi,

mod_define's capability to define variables in the config is a really nice to have feature and I have intended to integrate the module it into trunk. But I have now noticed that core's environment interpolation of ${xxx} is done before mod_define runs, and that it is not possible to override the values of os envvars with mod_define. Therefore I now intend to integrate a reduced variant of mod_define into core's ap_resolve_env. This also makes it possible to add a command line option to define a variable.

I don't intend to include mod_define's ability to replace the special characters ${...} with other characters. I don't think that is worth the effort. Core will interpolate envvars with this syntax anyway.

Anyone disagrees?

Cheers,
Stefan
