Olli Hauer fa82723bda - new port www/apache24
The Apache HTTP Server Project is an effort to develop and maintain an
open-source HTTP server for various modern desktop and server operating
systems, such as UNIX and Windows NT. The goal of this project is to
provide a secure, efficient and extensible server which provides HTTP
services in sync with the current HTTP standards.
The 2.x branch of Apache Web Server includes several improvements like
threading, use of APR, native IPv6 and SSL support, and many more.

WWW: http://httpd.apache.org/

Note:
 Since apache24 does not enable every module by default in httpd.conf the
 list of modules to build was preselected to match build param
  --enable-modules=most

 MPM selection is now an OPTION also if the MPM is build statically or
 dynamically. In the later case all modules are build/installed but only
 the selected MPM has an entry in httpd.conf (see apache issue 53882)

 Per default the MPM prefork (static) will be build, to get the best
 compatibility.

 Custom variants like itk/peruser are not supported at the moment.

 Port based on my work prototype from the apache@ list and patch from

Hints:
- only a subset from the selected modules are enabled by default in
httpd.conf.
- by default apache24 builds with static prefork MPM
- if MPM_SHARED is selected then all MPM modules will be build, but
only the selected DEFAULT MPM module will be registered and enabled
in httpd.conf. For more information see:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53882
Note:
Shared MPM loading is at the moment not supported by most additional
modules (php/perl/python) because they need to know the apache
threading model during build time
To build the develop/example modules specify additional the parameter
-DIAMADEVELOPER (I am a developer)
