Again, it seems to work with 4.7 and prior versions, so it seems to be a change
with 5.0.

As to using apache over Squid or somesuch, its more historical, habit and 
"whats available" than any technology religion. Again, where its been
working, theres been no need to find something else. If its not going to work,
and its not a quick fix, I probably will explore alternatives.
