RE: mod_backhand.so: please recompile it with -DEAPI -- How?

Hello,

thank you very much for the fast reply. mod_backhand.so is now 75 bytes
larger. But the result is the same (please recompile with -DEAPI and
segmentations faults)

BTW: make install said:
./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin
./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/lib
./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/info
make: INSTALL@: Command not found
make: *** [install] Error 127

So I copied mod_backhand.so to /usr/lib/apache and issued the last command
of "make install" manually: apxs -i -A -n backhand backhand.so. This put #
signs before LoadModule / AddModule mod_backhand in my httpd.conf, and
apache did not recognize any Backhand command, so i removed the # to load
the module. (Should it have been loaded without that through apxs?)
