  *) APR_LDAP_SIZELIMIT should prefer LDAP_DEFAULT_LIMIT/-1 when the

     LDAP_NO_LIMIT/0) it is not safe to use a literal -1.
     PR23356 [Eric Covener]

     PR 45679 [Ben Noordhuis <bnoordhuis gmail.com>]

     loaded as .so's on first demand, unless --disable-util-dso is configured.
     [William Rowe]

     [Graham Leggett]

     PR 42841 [Tom Donovan, Nick Kew, Ruediger Pluem]

  *) Modularize ldap's stub with the dbd dso modular structure, and teach
     the apu dso's to respect the system specific shared lib path var.
     To link to an application without ldap libs, query 
     `apu-1-config --avoid-ldap --libs` (in addition to the usual linker
     queries for compiling and linking).  [William Rowe]

  *) Support building DBD drivers as DSOs by default; use --disable-util-dso
     flag to configure to use static link.  [Joe Orton, Bojan Smojver]

  *) All DBD drivers now count rows from 1, which affects PostgreSQL and MySQL
     drivers in particular. Using row number zero is an error.

  *) Fix the setting of LDAP_OPT_SSL on Win2k, which expects a pointer to
     the value LDAP_OPT_ON, and not the value itself. XP works with both.
     [Victor <victorjss@gmail.com>]

  *) Fix a regression in apr_brigade_partition that causes integer overflows
     on systems where apr_off_t > apr_size_t.  [Ruediger Pluem]

     places, fixing some configure issues on Solaris.
     [Henry Jen <henryjen ztune.net>]

  *) Make apr_dbd.h work as a stand alone header, without needing other
     files to be included before it. [Henry Jen <henryjen ztune.net>]

  *) On platforms that use autoconf stop automatically linking against
     apr-iconv when an apr-iconv source dir is found in ../apr-iconv.
     Instead, add a --with-apr-iconv option to configure that lets you
     specify the relative path to your apr-iconv source directory.
     [Garrett Rooney]

  *) APR_FIND_APU macro now supports customisable detailed checks on
     each installed apr-util. [Justin Erenkrantz, Colm MacCárthaigh]
