problems using apr_reslist

[Paul Querna <ch...@cyan.com>]

To Start off, I just started playing with APR this week, so this might be a
very simple, and stupid mistake, So please forgive me if it is :-)

I am working on mod_authn_mysql, using the new Auth*Providers in
Apache2.1-dev.(Apache2.1 & APR copied from CVS on monday/tuesday)

I had it basicly working without any persistant or pooling of connections. (on
new Auth request, open up a new MySQL Connection, run the queries, and then
close everything up).  That is not a Good Thing(tm) in the long run.

I have been trying to use apr_reslist as a medium to provide both persistance,
and pooling of the database connections.

I have put a copy of it onto here: 
http://open.cyanworlds.com/~chip/temp/mod_authn_mysql.c

Assuming that I am using apr_reslist correctly, it seems like the MySQL
objects when created are fine, but when i try to get one back out, somthing
about them is messed up.

Running Apache from within gdb shows this:
