2.3.3 on Mac OS X

[Rich Bowen <rb...@rcbowen.com>]

Built 2.3.3 on Mac OS X 10.5.8 with:

"./configure" \
"--enable-modules=most" \
"--enable-mods-shared=all" \
"--with-mpm=event" \
"--prefix=/usr/local/apache" \


and got this on startup:

[Wed Nov 11 20:56:15 2009] [crit] (70023)This function has not been  
implemented on this platform: Couldn't create a Thread Safe Pollset.  
Is it supported on your platform?Also check system or user limits!
Pre-configuration failed

Built and ran fine with worker mpm.

I had "fun" working on an implementation of APACHE_TRY_RUN_APR()
before realizing that the concept doesn't work for an in-tree APR
(srclib/apr) since APR hasn't been built yet ;)

Unless somebody has a better idea, I'll wrap the existing code (above)
in AC_CACHE_CHECK() so users can override the decision, and duplicate
APR's OS X level check so we don't build Event and Simple on Leopard.

this part of server/mpm/config.m4 needs some help:

dnl See if APR supports APR_POLLSET_THREADSAFE.
dnl XXX This hack tests for the underlying functions used by APR when it
dnl XXX supports APR_POLLSET_THREADSAFE.
dnl FIXME with a run-time check for
dnl     apr_pollset_create(,,APR_POLLSET_THREADSAFE) == APR_SUCCESS
AC_CHECK_FUNCS(kqueue port_create epoll_create)
if test "$ac_cv_func_kqueue$ac_cv_func_port_create$ac_cv_func_epoll_create"
!= "nonono"; then
    have_threadsafe_pollset=yes
else
    have_threadsafe_pollset=no
fi

(APR actually skips kqueue on Leopard because of kernel issues.)

resolved in r836165

--with-mpm=event will be rejected during configure; other failure
scenarios were with no mpm options (event was the default) and
--enable-mpms-shared=all (event and simple were built even though they
would fail at startup)
