* MIME type case sensitivity disparity between 1.2.6 and 1.3b6 (PR #2112)
- Jim: Is the suggested change in find_title() not
- sufficient? Or is the fix to remap all mimes to lowercase?
- Dean: all mime types are already lowercase everywhere else in the
- server
+ mod_autoindex should lowercase the mime-type when comparing

* proxy security fixes from 1.2.5 need to be brought forward
Jim: What are these?

<Pine.LNX.3.96dg4.980413204700.6322R-100000@twinlark.arctic.org>
- Jim: Is this something to hold 1.3.0 up for? I'm thinking maybe
- some sort of error-code be placed in scoreboard that
- the parent could act on? Of course, we already use
- waitpid() so we have the status already...
- Some of these "we should stop errors" are kinda obvious,
- like a bad lockfile... some I would have no idea.
- I'll generate a list of what I think are these Abort
- errors and ask for feedback.
- Dean: Yep. It's a serious reliability difference between 1.2 and
- 1.3 -- for some errors, such as the bogus group id, 1.2 would
- have exited immediately. 1.3 will consume all system resources,
- it will spawn 32 children per second, and every one of them will
- write a log entry. Besides it's an easy fix.

A device checker patch had been sent to the list a while ago.
