気がついたら、リリースされていました。。。

d:id:rx7:20070306:p1 で、パッチを当てたけど、上手くインストールできなくて強引に入れちゃった"mod_extforward"も正式にモジュールとして組み込まれたようですね。
- added mod_extforward module
- fixed possible crash in debug-message in mod_extforward
- fixed compilation of mod_extforward on glibc < 2.3.4
社内SNSでも、上記モジュールを導入してリバースプロキシ + ロードバランサ(Apache2.2 + mod_proxy + mod_proxy_balancer)越しに運用しているのですが、一定条件(^/$以外のbalancer時)で上手く稼動しないこともあって(単に環境依存の問題かも)、一部はモジュールを外しているのですが、バグフィックスもされているようなので、案外バージョンアップしたら上手く動いてくれるのかしら。
他にも、"Added round-robin support to mod_fastcgi"このあたりが気になってみたり。
と、こんな感じで、リリース内容をペタッと貼り付けておきます。
