Seg violation, mod_dav in apache 2.0.39, Win98, PC

           Summary: Seg violation, mod_dav in apache 2.0.39, Win98, PC
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.39
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 9x
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: mod_dav
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jwoodard@best.com


I've installed Apache binary 2.0.39 on Windows 98 Rel 2
and, natively installed, it starts and works OK.
Then I modified the httpd.conf file to load the included
mod_dav service by uncommenting the line

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so

The server starts without trouble.
But as soon as I activate the DAV service with the simple
directives in httpd.conf:

<Location />
DAV On
</Location>
DAVLockDB c:/temp/DAVLock

the apache server encounters a segmentation violation on startup and fails.

If I fetch the most recently available binary of 'mod_dav' for Win32
(mod_dav 1.0.3) and the latest required 'expat' (ver 1.2 for Win32) and
follow installation instructions by placing the following files in 
directories containing shared Win library files:

mod_dav.dll (installed in Apache's $SERVER_ROOT/modules)
xmlparse.dll 
xmltok.dll

and load that mod_dav service with the directive

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.dll

then apache complains that a shared library required by mod_dav.dll
isn't found and the server fails. The successive 'DAV On' and 'DAVLockDB'
statements fails because the DAV service isn't running.

It would seem the mod_dav library included with the Win32 binary distribution 
of the Apache 2.0 web server has a bug. 

What can I do to include a DAV service with my Apache 2.0 server on Win 98?

Thanks,
