Sendfile enabled on OS X in APR versions > 1.2

I recently checked out a copies of trunk apr, apr-util, and httpd to  
play around with. After building everything I noticed images were cut  
off in my browser. Setting EnableSendFile off fixed the problem, but  
APR 1.2 was smart enough to disable sendfile on OS X. Configure.in in  
APR 1.2 has the following lines:

*darwin*)
# darwin semantics in 9.0.0 appear to be fubar
sendfile="0"
;;

which are missing in trunk's configure.in. Even though it's only a one  
line change, a patch is attached. Paul Querna says this should also be  
backported to the 1.3 branch.
