1.0 Showstoppers?

Are the showstoppers that are listed in the STATUS file the only
ones we have? (for APR, APR-UTIL, etc...)

Sorry about that:

Yes, we got your patch, but are currently lacking time to test
it.  Thank you for your patience.  We will get back to you.

I sent a patch for apr_thread_cond_wait @ WIN32 some weeks ago,
and still got *no* response. If there's some problem with the
patch or whatever please let me know. It's somehow not very
nice when you want to contribute but no-one listens to you...?

There is a patch out there, is it sufficient?

Can you clarify this?

Which causes breakage in the pools debug code.  The logic will
have to be rethought to prevent deadlocks, if no nested mutexes
can be used.

Defer to 1.0.1?

Maybe some of:

- removal of nested mutex from the API
- fixing condition variables on Win32
- adding LFS support for relevant Unixes
