Thanks Colin! Pushed to our git repo. I'm not uploading the package right now because there's one issue left: The test suite isn't run with Apache 2.4 (".AH00534: apache2: Configuration error: No MPM loaded."); it seems that Apache::TestMB doesn't honour APACHE_TEST_EXTRA_ARG or have an equivalent, unlike Apache::TestMM. I suppose we'd need to patch this in libapache2-mod-perl2 :/ Ah, an alternative is to patch t/conf/extra.conf.in (instead of our "usual" 'APACHE_TEST_EXTRA_ARGS="-httpd_conf $(CURDIR)/debian/apache2.conf"'); works, but is not very elegant, and Apache::TestMB would probably be a better place to fix this (but only after the Apache 2.4 migration to testing).
