[PATCH] Allow mod_rewrite to talk to external rewrite engine over TCP/IP

[James Tait <JT...@wyrddreams.demon.co.uk>]

The 1.3.24 patch is in Bugzilla, id #8882, but I thought I'd post it here 
for completeness.

The patch adds a new RewriteMap type:

RewriteMap MapName tcp:host:port

Since several child processes can connect to a multi-threaded rewrite 
engine at once, RewriteLock is not required, and requests to the rewrite 
engine are not serialised resulting in increased performance over the 
current stdin/stdout implementation.

Cheers,

JT
