*) mod_unique_id: Use output of the PRNG rather than IP address and

pid, avoiding sleep() call and possible DNS issues at startup,

plus improving randomness for IPv6-only hosts.

*) mod_authnz_ldap: Support primitive LDAP servers that do not accept

filters, such as "SDBM-backed LDAP" on z/OS, by allowing a special

filter "none" to be specified in AuthLDAPURL. [Eric Covener]

*) mod_file_cache: mod_file_cache should be able to serve files that

haven't had a Content-Type set via e.g. mod_mime. [Eric Covener]

previously limited to 64MB. [Jens Låås <jelaas gmail.com>]

*) mod_auth_digest: Use the secret when generating nonces in all cases and

problems if used with round robin load balancers). Don't regenerate the

secret on graceful restarts. PR 54637 [Stefan Fritsch]

from the HTTP_IN filter, parse chunks in a single pass with zero copy.

Reduce memory usage by 48 bytes per request. [Graham Leggett]
