I had no problems building Apache 1.3x OR 2x on several DF boxes
already with both gcc2 and 3. I never once had to touch any source to
either. Hmm. Maybe you are running CURRENT?

BUT one catch I discovered with Apache of DF is that the startup
script apache.sh doesn't work right out of the box. I kept getting
ulimit error when trying to start Apache with the startup script
included as is. But commenting out the line that sets the limits
towards bottom of the script took care of that problem.

I posted late last year about this in bugs and suppose I should post
the fix now. But I don't understand how come no one else ever pointed
it out.
