I second Andi on this. It's quite true that Apache isn't a piece of
software that people frequently update, mainly because very little features
were added in between mini versions (mostly compatibility and security
fixes). It may not be a good thing, but from my experience, it still
pretty much a reality.
Judging by the numbers from E-soft
(http://www.securityspace.com/s_survey/data/200105/servers.html), I'd say
we're best off trying to support 1.3.6 and later.
