At least to 2.2.22 and maybe even to 2.4.1. Apache 2.0.52 is very old (more that 7 years old) and has security issues. Which proxy module are you using? The link you sent mentions mod_proxy_html (which is what is causing the problem), but you should be able to use mod_proxy_http by itself. Since you did not provide any information about your current settings, I can just point you to this article which has full configuration instructions for using Apache as a proxy to Websphere: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wsmashin/v1r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.websphere.sMash.doc/core/zero.core/docs/en/ProxyConfiguration.html
