Change since 2.0.0:

B::Terse has problems with XS code, so adjust Apache::Status to eval
{} the code doing Syntax Tree Dump: syntax and execution order options
[Stas]

Fix a broken regexp in Apache2::Build::dir() on win32 that would
incorrectly attempt to fully-qualify paths like c:/some/path
[Nick *** <do...@abv.bg>]

Fix the "No library found" warnings when building on win32 without
apxs and MP_AP_PREFIX [Nick *** <do...@abv.bg>]

The pure-perl ModPerl::Util::unload_package implementation was
accidently deleting sub-stashes [Gozer]

If running Makefile.PL unnatended (STDIN isn't a terminal or
MP_PROMPT_DEFAULT=1), break out of potentially infinite prompt
loops [Gozer]

fix ModPerl::TestReport used by t/REPORT and mp2bug to use
ExtUtils::MakeMaker's MM->parse_version to get the interesting
packages version number, w/o trying to load them (which may fail if
the environment is not right) [Stas]

fix a bug in ModPerl::RegistryCooker: now stripping __(END|DATA)__
only at the beginning of the line [Stas]

APR::Base64 : [Torsten Foertsch <to...@gmx.net>]
- fix encode_len() to return the length without accounting for the
terminating '\0' as the C API does.
- fix encode() to create the string of the correct length (previously
was creating one too many)

in mod_perl callbacks merge error-notes entries rather than store just
the newest error [Mark <ma...@immermail.com>]

Expose Apache2::Const::EXEC_ON_READ (added to the :override group)
[Stas]

Fix a bug in custom directive implementation, where the code called
from modperl_module_config_merge() was setting the global context
after selecting the new interpreter which was leading to a segfault in
any handler called thereafter, whose context was different
beforehand. [Stas]
