Re: [ANNOUNCE] mod_perl-1.28

Dare I hope that Randy managed to commit the patch that lets mp-1.28 build
on win32 with activestate perl 5.8.0?  It was so close to working and it's a
major platform release, IMHO...  (Randy: I'm toying with the patch you  sent
me...)

Thanks ... I've tested running a few mod_perl 1 things now on
ActivePerl 806 with this patch, and it seems OK. This includes
Apache-ASP and HTML-Mason, as well as some XS-based packages like
Embperl, AxKit, libapreq, and Apache-Template that link against
mod_perl. There's a few apparent pecularities, but they may be
particular to my system, specifically trying to coexist with
mod_perl 2. So I'll commit the patch, and we'll see how it fares.

Absolutely! And Randy, as soon as you are happy with both a patch and
satisfactory test results (in your opinion), I'd say commit++

Gozer out.

No, I didn't commit it. The patch shouldn't affect any other
platform, but before committing it it would be good to, first of
all, see if someone can see a better way and/or can see if
there's something wrong in principle with it, and secondly, to
get some further testing of it on other machines and also outside
of the mod_perl tests (which all pass). For example, it would be
interesting to see if the problems Steve finds with the
t/request.t tests on 5.8.0 without LARGE_FILES support are still
there - the mod_perl tests I did were without libapreq, so the
t/request.t (and t/cookie.t) tests were skipped.
