Changes for version 1.11
- Apache::SIG enhancements for LogFormat [Doug Bagley <doug@dejanews.com>]
- drop API_EXPORTs for mod_include #perl stuff which breaks under win32/1.3b6 spotted by Jeff Baker
- Inclusion of $r->server->server_hostname if $r->server->is_virtual in Apache::Registry script namespaces is back to On by default after recently tripping up Ben Laurie, Janos Farkas, Tony Bowden. To disable (only gain is to conserve memory) in a startup file set: $Apache::Registry::NameWithVirtualHost = 0;
- work around bloody make problem "don't know how to make Apache.c Constants.c" spotted on SCO by Krister Keskitalo (along w/ 1-2 others in the past)
- fix Makefile.PL for apache-1.2.6+ssl_1.16
- Stefano Santoro <ssantoro@voicetek.com>, Dan Peterson <pete@spry.com>
- removed obsolete src/Makefile.tmpl and src/Makefile.tmpl-Ben-SSL files
- new module Apache::ExtUtils, currently with one method to generate xs code so Apache/Perl modules can add their own directives to Apache rather than use PerlSetVar (just some more rope, really)
- 1.3b6 compat:
- deal with ap_ API prefixing
- t/modules/embperl will warn on failure: >>> NOTE: Be sure to rebuild HTML::Embperl against Apache 1.3b6+ >>> Try 'make test' again after doing so.
- experimental: #ifdef PERL_OBJECT_HANDLERS, mod_perl will thaw objects from Perl*Handler strings such as `$Global::Object->method'
- $r->custom_response will now work under win32 with 1.3b6-dev+
- added win32 test enhancements suggested by Gerald Richter
- added mod_perl_cvs.pod document
