Thanks!  I changed it from a FATAL to a WARNING and defaulted to [0 1].  I 
don't want to break every configure.in script at this point.  Just dropping in 
the new find_apr.m4 should be enough to update at this late stage...

I guess we also need to do the same for apr-util.  *sigh*  I'll see if I have 
time tonight or tomorrow.  But, no promises from me.  -- justin

Hm. I'm not entirely sure that allowing projects to silently ignore this
change is a good idea, but I'm happy to have the main issue here fixed.

I'll prepare the corresponding patch for apr-util, but I'll be losing net
access shortly for at least the next 16 hours. I doubt APR will have reached
1.0.0 final by then, though, so hopefully that won't be a problem.

Max.
