Further, last fall struct conn_rec was changed again in these commits:

$ svn log -r1206291 -r1204968
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1206291 | minfrin | 2011-11-25 20:42:04 +0100 (Fri, 25 Nov 2011) | 4 lines

Introduce a per connection "peer_ip" and a per request "client_ip" to
distinguish between the raw IP address of the connection and the effective
IP address of the request.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1204968 | minfrin | 2011-11-22 14:10:39 +0100 (Tue, 22 Nov 2011) | 4 lines

Introduce a per request version of the remote IP address, which can be
optionally modified by a module when the effective IP of the client
is not the same as the real IP of the client (such as a load balancer).

------------------------------------------------------------------------

These changes were then at least partly backported to httpd 2.4, see

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/include/httpd.h?r1=1208378&r2=1214022
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/include/httpd.h?r1=1204743&r2=1208378

IMHO, we should implement a compatibility function that maps remote_ip() to 
client_ip and provide the new structure members independently.
