CHANGES since 2.0.2:
---------------------
Fix bug concerning 'error-notes' having no value on
errordocument redirect.
[Guy Albertelli II <guy@albertelli.com>]

Multi-line $PerlConfig is now working [Gozer]

PerlOptions None was previously incorrectly reported as invalid
inside <VirtualHost> or <Directory> blocks.
[Philip M. Gollucci]

Require B::Size 0.07 and B::TerseSize 0.07 for Apache2::Status
[Philip M. Gollucci]

Apache2::Status was expecting B::TerseSize to return
an op count for things that it didn't causing
requests like http://localhost/perl-status/main?noh_b_package_size
to cause 405s
[Philip M. Gollucci]

Updates for Win32 to allow building and testing on Apache/2.2:
- use httpd.exe as the Apache binary name when installing apxs
- use new apr library names (libapr-1.lib and libaprutil-1.lib)
[Randy Kobes]

Make sure that additional library paths are included in the build flags
so that mod_perl will use the same versions of libraries that APR does.
[Mike Smith <mike@mailchannels.com>]

Added $r->connection->pnotes, identical to $r->pnotes, but
for the entire lifetime of the connection
[Geoffrey Young, Gozer]

Fixed problems with add_config() and thread-safety: [Gozer]
- $s->add_config is not allowed anymore after server startup
- $r->add_config can only affect configuration for the current
   request, just like .htaccess files do

Make sure that LIBS and other MakeMaker command line flags are not
ignored by the top level Makefile.PL and xs/APR/APR/Makefile.PL [Stas]

Corrected a typo that would cause the corruption of $), the
effective group id as Perl sees it [Gozer]

Added support for httpd-2.2's new override_opts in Apache2::Access.
Calls to add_config() now accept an override_opts value as the 4th
argument. [Torsten Foertsch <torsten.foertsch@gmx.net>, Gozer]

Fix 'PerlSwitches +inherit' that got broken somewhere along
the way to 2.0. You can also use 'PerlOptions +InheritSwitches'
for the same result. [Gozer]

Add perl API corresponding to User and Group directives in httpd.conf:
Apache2::ServerUtil->user_id and Apache2::ServerUtil->group_id
[Stas]

Apache2::Reload now first unloads all modified modules before
trying to reload them. This way, inter-module dependencies
are more likely to be correctly satisfied when reloaded
[Javier Uruen Val <juruen@warp.es>, Gozer]

$r->add_config() can now take an optionnal 3rd argument that
specifies what pseudo <Location $path> the configuration is
evaluated into [Torsten Foertsch <torsten.foertsch@gmx.net>]

remove -DAP_HAVE_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER and -DAP_DEBUG from
MP_MAINTAINER mode to avoid collisions [Joe Orton]

Back out r280262 which was causing Apache2::Reload to misbehave.
[JT Smith <jt@plainblack.com>]

Perl_do_open/close fixes to make mod_perl 2.0 compile with
blead-perl@25889+ (5.9.3+) [Stas]

Added Apache2::PerlSections->server, returning the server
into which the <Perl> section is defined [Gozer]

Require B::Size and B::TerseSize v0.06 for Apache2::Status
options StatusTerse and StatusTerseSize which has now been
updated to support the new mod_perl2 api post RC5.
[Philip M. Gollucci]

When using Apache2::PerlSections->dump, the configuration
would print out in the correct order, but when the configuration was
passed off to Apache the ordering was lost.
[Scott Wessels <swessels@usgn.net>]
