If the APR project has new releases, would you please consider
those, instead?  There is -alot- of activity on the bug-fixing
side of that world, especially in network APIs.

Happy to.

These issues are addressed by a patch I'll be committing later
today for apr (core).  apr_dso_filepath_get() will track down that
libapriconv-1.so/.dll/.dylib/.sl filepath we were hunting for.

In any case, if this is an alpha, I have no hesitation in supporting
another round of testing and review.  I do have a huge issue if the
project tags any flavor before addressing the HTTP Request flaws, but
your Friday window gives folks an opportunity to investigate those.
