Hi Jan,

Thank you so much for all your work on this!

I've finally got round to having a look at it (sorry it's been so long!),
and have run into some teething problems here on Windows...

The first problem was "Warning (mostly harmless): No library found for
-laprutil-1" appearing from Makefile.PL between ModPerl::WrapXS and APR
(presumably it applies to the latter), which I've ignored for now but will
probably come back to bite me later. No other such issues are reported, and
all the libraries (apr-1.lib, aprutil-1.lib, libapr-1.lib,
libapriconv-1.lib, libaprutil-1.lib, libhttpd.lib, mod_dav.lib and xml.lib)
are together in C:\Apache24\lib, so I'm not sure what the problem is there
yet.

Next up, modperl_util.c contained various declarations scatted amongst code
which VC++ doesn't support when compiling C (rather than C++). I've fixed
that in r1502045.

Next, modperl_apache_compat.c complains that we're *defining* the missing
httpd function "ap_get_server_version", but we've declared it the same way
as httpd would do -- that is, marked "dllexport" when compiled in httpd and
otherwise marked "dllimport" to say that we're third-party code importing
it from httpd. We're third-party code, of course, but *defining* a function
marked "dllimport" isn't allowed. Removing dllexport/dllimport from the
declaration (see attached patch) fixes this for me, but I don't know if
that's the right thing on other OSes?

The build now progress to APR::Brigade, but falls over complaining that
modperl_error.c references the symbol "perl_module", but that isn't defined
anywhere.

I've run out of time tonight but will come back to this very soon. If you
can shed any light on the remaining problems so far that might assist me
when I look again then please let me know.

Steve
