Thanks for testing, and sorry I've taken so long to get back.

So it looks like you're happy on Linux, except for one known failure
(compat/conn_rec.t) and a bunch of failures caused by r1491887.

I will try testing with that change reverted and see what results I
get. Presumably it will fix the same things that it fixes for you; I'm
curious to see whether it also fixes anything else.

Aside from that, we have two sets of failures on Windows only:

- modperl/local_env.t & merge*.t failing with either httpd-2.2 or 2.4,
but they work with trunk (on httpd-2.2, obviously)

- protocol/echo_block.t, echo_nonblock.t, echo_timeout.t &
pseudo_httpd.t failing with httpd-2.4 only

I've looked at all of these before and made little headway. I will
look again while I play with reverting r1491887, but otherwise I fear
we're going to have to release 2.0.9 with these known Windows failures
so that it doesn't hold up an otherwise good Linux release any longer.

So I will probably start merging httpd24threading back to trunk soon
if there are no objections...
