As described in apache issue 49838 mod_remoteip may cause segfaults when used
together with .htaccess files and allow/deny statements.

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49838

The bugzilla report also mentions the two official bugfixes
r990745: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=990745
and
r990746: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=990746

These two small bugfixes can be applied without any further changes to this
FreeBSD port as well to avoid apache httpd segfaults.

Although Apache 2.4 should be preferred over Apache 2.2, some people might
still have to use Apache 2.2 for compatibility reasons together with some kind
of load balancer or reverse proxy in front. In such situations this backport of
mod_remoteip gets very handy.

Please consider adding these two bugfixes.
