aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!  ;-)  Yeah, the DCE plugin uses new_connection(), I'm +1 on
renaming to ap_new_connection().   Actually, 1.3b3 already did break it, when two
of the pools in http_main (pconf and ptrans) became static, it broke.  There's a
global pointer to one, I forget which, but I had to un-static the other for it to
work again.   But, I found this the day before I left to live in a different
country and work at a different company (with no DCE) for at least a few months,
so I haven't been able to follow up yet.
