FWIW, they now have a native FreeBSD version (FP extensions
SR1, the port needs to be updated BTW) -- works like a charm with minor
changes to one of the port patches.
The binaries are 3.3, linked dynamically -- compat3x will get this
working.
Caveat: if you misconfigure your VirtualHost in some way, any call
to the FP-patched Apache to that subweb's /_vti_bin/ will make it
(apache) segfault.
Will debug this if I find time.
