I'm not really sure about that. The current apr(util) are probably too old 
for such a new apache. I'll update soon (ETA 1-2 days).

Call it apr-0.9.5_2.0.52-0gph or something

"2.x" is numerically higher than any apr release existing now, or in the

Either the server is drastically overloaded, or those binaries aren't 
working so well after all. I tried to download the binary package, and it 
consistently fed only an 8K chunk before terminating the connection.
