Tiny documentation patch to fix outdated reference to Apache.pm in Embperl.pod
Hi Gerald,

I just stumbled upon a reference to "perldoc Apache" in Embperl.pod.
Nowadays (I assume since Apache 2), this should refer to
Apache2::RequestRec, also because $req_rec actually contains an
Apache2::RequestRec object.

This patch should fix that:

---schnipp---
--- a/Embperl.pod
+++ b/Embperl.pod
@@ -878,7 +878,7 @@

This variable is only available when running under control of
mod_perl. It contains the request record needed to access the Apache
-server API. See B<perldoc Apache> for more information.
+server API. See B<perldoc Apache2::RequestRec> for more information.

P.S.: Any chance to forge a new Embperl release? Even if it's just a
2.5.1 release with all the compatibility fixes for newer Perl and
module dependency versions...

many regards, Axel

Yes please! Still here. Still using Embperl in 2018, still going strong
on the largest bicycle touring website in the world (14k journals, 2.7M
pics). Currently running on Debian Wheezy, would like to continue
running with latest Debian when I finally upgrade. Thanks!

Neil
