+     2.4.x patch: trunk works (modulo CHANGES)

+     API, dav_send_one_response(), because this API is not yet a part of any
+     2.4.x release (it was backported to 2.4.x in r1756561).  So, the change
+     should either go to the upcoming 2.4.24, or should be reworked in case
+     2.4.24 is released without it.  See the thread at
