If there's a problem with Sun's C++, I bet it's in APR (as mod_webapp relies
100% on it). And it can be fixed (here or there). And I don't quite get why
Sun's and GCC aren't interoperable... They should both spit out ELF on
Solaris...

FUCK YEAH... (Ok, I can be somehow happy at this point)
Guys, we need to shoot at the bug I filed today... #2933... It's the only
step which still forbids me to put out a beta-1... :) Can you please check
