hrm ... why not just compile it from source? Maybe i'm still living too much in my slackware /
bsd days ... but if it (the RPM) doesn't have what you want, assuming that you're using the
StackGuard-enabled compiler and running grsecurity or some other form of protection .. I believe
(and please, someone correct me if i'm wrong or tell me that i'm right) that compiling from
tarball will do the trick.

I can post the patches i had to use if needed so. Latest 1.3.26 apache build borks on install
unless ab.c and htpasswd.c is patched.
