I was trying to avoid referencing the old fix that didn't work. I'll
take another look.

<quote>The attribute will be available in Tomcat 6.0.21 onwards</quote>

It can't get much clearer than that.

1. rev.881774 mentioned in the text, but the link points to rev.891292.

Actually the fix is a combination of both those revisions. (E.g.
allowUnsafeLegacyRenegotiation field introduced in the first one is
still used in the second).

2. With this change now there is no information about what TC release
includes the workaround. It requires some experience to derive that
from revision numbers. Though everyone can look in the changelog.
