[RELEASE CANDIDATE] libapreq2 2.11

The apreq developers are planning a maintenance release of
libapreq2. This version addresses several bugfixes and includes new features.

Changes since the last release version include:

- Interactive CGI module [issac]
Allow cgi module to interactively prompt for parameters and cookies when
running a script from the command line and not from a CGI interface

- Perl Glue [joes]
Fix the linking of the perl modules to libapreq2 and libapr
on Solaris.

- Perl Glue [joes]
Fix install-time linking issue of the .so modules.
Previously they would remain linked against the src
library path, not the install path.

- C API [joes]
Add optional interface for apreq_handle_apache2().

- C API [joes]
Clean up buggy apreq_hook_find_param().

- Perl Glue Build [Philip M. Gollucci]
config.status format changed format yet again in autoconf 2.62+.

- License [Mladen Turk]
Add libapreq.rc and generate libapreq.res

- Build [Mladen Turk]
Add APREQ_DECLARE_EXPORT/APREQ_DECLARE_STATIC
in the same way as APR declares so that dllexport/dllimport
get correctly handled.

- Build [Randy Kobes]
Add appropriate manifest command to embed manifest files on Win32
when using VC8

- C API [Andy Grundman, joes]
Add missing bytes_read initializer to apreq_handle_custom().

- C API [suggested by Vinay Y S, tested by Steve Hay and Peter Walsham]
For Win32, remove the
flag |= APR_FILE_NOCLEANUP | APR_SHARELOCK;
in apreq_file_cleanup, to avoid problems with file uploads.

- C API [joes]
Fix leak associated to calling apreq_brigade_fwrite() on an upload
brigade.

- Build [Philip M. Gollucci]
SunOS (Solaris)
Users must use gmake not make for building.

- Build [Philip M. Gollucci]
SunOS (Solaris)
Code around bug in libtool (at least in 1.5.18, 1.5.20, 1.5.22)
causing mod_apreq2 to be built instead of mod_apreq2.so

- C API [Philip M. Gollucci]
Fix comparison signed vs unsigned comparison
in apreq_fwritev() on SunOS/gcc where iovec.iov_len is a long.

- Build [Philip M. Gollucci]
SunOS (Solaris)
fix duplicate link error to libexpat.so -- by using the one from httpd
exclusively now.

- Build [Philip M. Gollucci]
code around |#_!!_#| autoconf 2.60 bug.

t/big_request....ok
t/cgi............ok
t/cookie.........ok
t/request........31/36 # Failed test 34 in t/request.t at line 93 fail
#2
t/request........36/36 # Failed test 36 in t/request.t at line 118 fail
#2
t/request........ Failed 2/36 subtests
t/upload.........ok

Are these regressions or did we have these before? I'm having a feeling
that's the same SSL stuff we've seen before.

On Debian 4.0, using Apache/2.2.11 (worker MPM):

# perl Makefile.PL --with-apache2-apxs=/usr/local/apache22/bin/apxs
perl: 5.8.8 ok
mod_perl2: 2.000004 ok
Apache::Test: 1.31 ok
ExtUtils::MakeMaker: 6.30 ok
ExtUtils::XSBuilder: 0.28 ok
Test::More: 0.86 ok

Building okay. All tests successful.
