You definitly have not understood the use of it.
But that does not matter. I know you act like the APACHE
2.0 police.
I now start thinking that the MPM_TYPE should be an MPM_DESCR.
and for what the ap_show_mpm goes it can use the mpm_query to
provide the proper values. IMHO, the ap_show_mpm
is a not wrapper around ap_mpm_query.
