Finally returned to VC6, having replaced my older svn on Windows
which would no longer handshake with svn.apache.org and bumped into
a single issue.
Building VC6 binaries for win32, I was bitten by r1508904 which introduces
a C99 type prior to releasing apr 2.0 (probably not a good idea to make
such changes in a maintenance branch). A fix is in the branch;
http://svn.apache.org/r=1563992 (although it does not portably resolve
this C99 expectation, odbc isn't necessarily portable either). This fix
was not in time for apr-util 1.5.3 but is ready for apr-util 1.5.4 whenever
that is released.
In terms of providing dist/httpd/binaries/win32 httpd 2.2.29 based on
msvcrt,dll, I have a couple of options;
[ ] Ship with r1563992 applied (and document this? where?)
[ ] Drop apr_dbd_odbc.dll from the distribution
[ ] Don't ship
Any preferences? If option 1 is elected, the second question is whether
to update the -win32-src.zip distro as an -r2? This will only affect the
VC6/Studio 97 builds, since the more recent visual studio releases have
some level of C99 support.
