Changes with Apache 1.3a2
+ *) Implement a new timer scheme which eliminates the need to call alarm() all
+ the time. Instead a counter in the scoreboard for each child is used to
+ show when the child has made forward progress. The parent samples this
+ counter every scoreboard maintenance cycle, and issues SIGALRM if no
+ progress has been made in the timeout period. This reduces the static
+ request best-case syscall count to 22 from 29. This scheme is only
+ used by systems with memory-based scoreboards. [Dean Gaudet]
+
*) The proxy now properly handles CONNECT requests which are sent
to proxy servers when using ProxyRemote. [Marc Slemko, PR#1024]
