Additional candidates for merging back into 2.0?

These do not show up in the 2.0 STATUS file as candidates for backport.  
Any opinions whether I should get these into the 2.0 STATUS file for votes?

  *) htpasswd: Check the processed file on validity. If a line is not empty
     and not a comment, it must contain at least one colon. Otherwise exit
     with error code 7. [Kris Verbeeck <Kr...@ubizen.com>, Thom May]
 
*) ap_get_mime_headers_core: allocate space for the trailing null
     when folding is in effect.

*) ssl session caching(shmht) : Fix a SEGV problem with SHMHT session
     caching. PR 17864.

I'm in favour of adding all of these, FWIW. I can add the htpasswd sanity
check to STATUS now, if you want (I was just reviewing it).

That's in the STATUS file, and has 3 +1s. Just committed the backport.

In this vein, I'm also going to add:
 *) Ensure that ssl-std.conf is generated at configure time, and switch
     to using the expanded config variables to work the same as
     httpd-std.conf PR 19611
