AW: Upgrade to Apache 2.4

Hi Michael,

I read the page before posting to the list, but
a) I wanted to make sure that you are at all interested in an upgrade to apache 2.4
b) It says "You may also use git send-email or send a Git pull request which is the recommended way for patch sets."
(and I thought that git pull request is what Github (in this case) is for)

I broke down the patch into 4 smaller patches, but I wanted to make sure that each patch can be applied individually such that IPFire is not only building, but apache also does not crash on startup.

Therefore, the apache-update patch is still not that small, but the configuration changes are necessary because of the changed syntax.

I will now configure and use git send-email for the patches.

Best regards,
Wolfgang
PS.: I still have to build and test the individual patches, since I only tested the complete patch-set.

Hello,

could you please post this as explained here:

  http://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/submit-patches

This will allow us to comment on the changes. I do have quite a number of questions and remarks.

This is also a very huge patch, so I would prefer it if it was broken into smaller individual patches. It is all explained on the wiki.

Best,
-Michael
