Hey,
        Last time I posted here it was suggested that I look into extending the 
definition of apr_finfo_t to include some filesystem-specific file attributes. 
Basically localize Apache 2.x for Darwin. I have a couple questions before I try this.

* Should I modify srclib/apr/include/apr_file_info.h?

* What is the difference between mtime and ctime? Also, would anybody have any use for 
creation date (as opposed to modification date)? I don't think anything outside the 
mac world uses creation dates. 

Once I know which attributes I need to fill out, I can get them using one call of 
getattrlist(). Those attributes a file system can't fulfill will be null. 

Question: How does Apache write files? What if somebody uploads a file via webdav or 
something, and I wish to set the correct attributes. Is that even possible? (I don't 
know what information web browsers will send when uploading a file. I fear the worst 
in that they will only send the file name)
