Patches available: 
(see appended MIME-part ``patches.txt'' for diff snippets)

    o [patch.solarisdup]
      Dean's patch for the solaris which superseeds
      "PR#832: solaris -HUP problem with slack fd"
      ** Marc has also found a way for Solaris with slacking **
      ** We have to wait for a final solution which really works... **
      Status: Dean +1, RSE +0, Ken +1
      => ** WAITING IN QUEUE BECAUSE WE ARE
            STILL NOT SURE WHICH FIX SHOULD BE TAKEN:
            - the existing already comitted one?
            - this one which superseeds the existing one?
            - or a (still not available) patch based on Marc's new way? **

    o [patch.pr748]
      Dean's patch for PR#748: 
      mod_imap infinite loop for references above the server root
      Status: RSE +0, Randy +0 
      => ** STILL NEEDS TESTING **

    o [patch.chunkerr]
      Dean's "[PATCH] 1.2.2: obscure chunking error":
      <Pi...@benchlark.arctic.org>
      While chunking, it is possible to exit bwrite() or bflush() without
      having started the next chunk.  It should only happen when there's a
      write error ... but in some cases it would return without setting the
      error flags.
      Status: Dean +1, RSE +0 
      => ** STILL NEEDS TESTING **

TODO-list:
(still not done) 

    o incorporation of missing mod_rewrite docs into 1.3 and then merging into 1.2.2
    o checking of the 1.3 commit logs for finding still missing bugfix only patches
      which should also be applied to 1.2.2
    o checking of open PR's for Apache 1.2.2
    o ..??..

I did have something working in Apache basic test cases.  I haven't had
time to look further yet.

What did you need to do to make it choke when you added the SO_REUSEADDR?

Don't delay 1.2.2 for these, neither are critical.  As soon as the
solaris hup thing is finalised we should release it.

BTW, the thing that I said Marc had found was moving the SO_REUSEADDR
before the dup.  That worked in a small test program... but when I put it in
apache it barfed.  I'm guessing it's because my test program doesn't do any
forking.  Unless you've found something else, Marc?
