  RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
  
  
  RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
  
      * Build scripts do not recognise AIX 4.2.1 pthreads
  
      * Win32: Implement ap_shm_ functions 
  
      * Bill says we need a new procattr, APR_CREATE_SUSPENDED (or
        something similar) to direct ap_create_process to create the
        process suspended. We also need a call to wake up the suspended 
        process This may not be able to be implemented everywhere though.
  
      * Replace tables with a proper opaque ADT that has pluggable
        implementations (including something like the existing data type,
        plus hash tables for speed, with options for more later).
  	Status: fanf is working on this.
  
      * add a version number to apr_initialize() as an extra failsafe against
        (APR) library version skew.
        MsgID: <Pi...@nebula.lyra.org>
        Status: Greg +1 (volunteers), Jeff +1, Ryan +1, Tony -0(?)
  
      * The MM library is built as static and shared library. This should
        be set up to build only the required version.
  
  Documentation that needs writing:
  
      * API documentation
          Status: Ben Laurie has written some hooks documentation
          (apache-2.0/htdocs/hooks.html)
