- Description:
- mod_backhand is a project that allows load balancing through seamless
HTTP proxying from one web server to another. This proxying is used
to evenly distribute the load of a site across multiple machines so
that under-utilized resources are utilized to their fullest, thus
providing fine-grained, per-request HTTP load balancing for a cluster.

- Set EXPIRATION_DATE to an actual date (9.0 is behind, so guess 2 months from
now).
- This can be changed later as needed, if at all, either way we won't remove
them
until after 9.0 is released.

Mk/bsd.apache.mk can not sufficiently alter things before Mk/bsd.options.mk
in Mk/bsd.ports.mk due to ordering in Mk/bsd.port.mk. This causes OPTIONSFILE
to be incorrectly set during some make phases as a result of the recent
PKGNAMEPREFIX for apache ports.
'Revert' some of the PKGNAMEPREFIX changes for apXX-.
- Must be manually requested in tbe port Makefile either by
a) AP_FAST_BUILD=yes
b) PKGNAMEPREFIX=${APACHE_PKGNAMEPREFIX}
- Going forward, we will only do this for ports where WITH_APACHE
is NOT optional, but required. mod_* ports are a good fit.
141 ports are mod_ ports
80 of those use AP_FAST_BUILD and thus are auto hooked by this patch [a].
61 remaining are then patched to mirror the other $lang frameworks [b].
