Looking at the build system, there seems to still be
code there to build ApacheModulePerl.dll if httpd <
1.3.15. Is that still the case ?

Yes, it'll still build an ApacheModulePerl.dll if httpd < 1.3.15, but it uses the dsp under src/modules/win32/. The src/modules/ApacheModulePerl/ files aren't used, and in fact aren't included in the CPAN version.

Well, dhu for me on this one. Since those files weren't in the MANIFEST, they were not being shipped. If not being shipped, how did I expect them to be of any use.

So, any objection if I nuke those 3 files in the near future ?


That'd be OK by me .... It is admittedly confusing -
basically, pre-1.3.15, the mod_perl dll lib was called
ApacheModulePerl.dll, which was renamed post-1.3.15 to
mod_perl.so. So now in Makefile.PL, if httpd < 1.3.15, the
mod_perl.so built by src/modules/win32/mod_perl.dsp
is copied to /Apache/modules/ as ApacheModulePerl.dll.

In any case, I think that it's pretty safe to drop any support for Apache versions that old in 1.30. People can still use 1.29 if they really need it. 1.3.14 was released on Oct 10, 2000. 1.3.15 was never released.
