Yeah; this whole thread is premised on working around the problem without an Apache software change. It's a reasonable premise (IMO) -- if you've got a custom compilation and a lot of modules, that can end up being a lot of software. I build a PHP4+SSL+Apache+IMAP+etc. source tree at one point, and it ended up being ~1.2 million lines of code, all told, that had to be made to work together. If you had "just built it", then it would be very hard to update just one component without repeating the whole process. My advice? Use CVS. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
