+ <p>Module Magic Number (MMN) is a constant defined in Apache
+ source that is associated with binary compatibility of
+ modules. It is changed when internal Apache structures,
+ function calls and other significant parts of API change in
+ such a way that binary compatiblity cannot be guaranteed any
+ more. On MMN change, all third party modules have to be at
+ least recompiled, sometimes even slightly changed in order
+ to work with the new version of Apache.</p>
+
+ <p>If you're getting the above error messages, contact the
+ vendor of the module for the new binary, or compile it if
+ you have access to the source code.</p>
