Take a guess, any guess.

There is one that I was using for 1.2 at
http://www.worldgate.com/~marcs/a/Configuration, but 1.3 has changed
somewhat.

The idea is include a reasonable set of modules, enough so the significant
ones are there, but not silly ones.  It isn't firm.  I go for including
things like the proxy on the basis that even though they add a little
overhead, it is small enough to be worth ti.

I think it shouldn't.  For someone to usefully debug it they need a
compiler anyway, so...

Whereever.  If you have access to a web server, you can just put it there
and post the URL to the list and someone will put it in place.  Or you may
be able to upload to ftp.apache.org somewhere.

Then perhaps
    http://dev.apache.org/dist/binaries/BinBuild/binbuild.Configuration
should be updated as well to reflect the "desired" list of modules.
