Hi,

I've been working on mod_perl and httpd-2.4 compatibility again. Current status is that I'm able to compile mod_perl with httpd-2.4 on Fedora 17 (I haven't tested it on different systems) and "make test" more or less works.

Since the last update it's huge step forward, because "make test" failed just in the beginning previously and mod_perl with httpd-2.4 was quite useless (just hello world examples worked).

With my latest patches [1] mod_perl looks usable to me and there are only few tests which fails. Many of those tests have to be rewritten, because the features they are testing have changed in httpd-2.4.

"Failed 19/242 test programs. 16/2701 subtests failed."

There are some controversial patches with hardcoded things which should be fixed too, but I'm not the right person to come with right solution so far.

1. 0020-Link-APR.so-against-libaprutil-1.patch
APR.so needs apr_bucket* functions which comes from aprutil, but it is not linked against aprutil for me. I've hardcoded -laprutil-1 in the Makefile.pl because I'm not sure how Build.pm is supposed to work.

2. 0023-Define-perl_module-in-Const.xs.patch
Thanks to modperl header files Const.so needs extern perl_module symbol but this symbol is not defined in Const.xs. I've defined it there, but this definitely need some clean solution.
