That I don't know about. Maybe one of the OSTG guys will pipe in. I  
think there might have been an article on slashcode.com about it at  
one point or another. If memory serves, someone had started the  
modifications to make it work under Apache 2, or had got it working. I  
think at that time, modperl2 wasn't done yet. But if either happened,  
I don't recall ever seeing a patch submitted to Slash's sourceforge  
homepage with the needed changes.

I could be wrong. I'd check the bugs-list, patch list and feature  
request list on the sf homepage.

A subject change of Apache 2 and modperl 2 might be in order for the  
thread. That may get it more attention. I nearly ignored it because  
we, here, have no interest wrt IPv6.

Hope that helps.
