Synopsis: mod_perl doesnt build with ipv6 enabled apache13-modssl port

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: naddy
State-Changed-When: Sat Feb 14 16:17:20 PST 2004
State-Changed-Why: 
The IPv6 patch for Apache 1.3.x is known to break the module API.
You can have either IPv6 support or third party modules, but not both.
Sorry.

To quote from the README of the IPv6 patch:

  CAVEAT: This patchkit may change some of apache module API, to avoid
  IPv4-dependent structure member variable (like use of u_long to hold
  IPv4 address, or whatever).  Therefore, it is almost impossible for the
  IPv6 patch to be used with other module patches, at the same time
  (including mod_ssl, mod_perl and others).  We have no plan to fix it.
