GitHub user swebb2066 added a comment to the discussion: Next Log4cxx Major release thoughts

> Removal of APR pool. Most of the time the pool argument to functions is not used, so this is a pretty straightforward removal

In #634, (removing Pool from OptionHandler::activateOptions), I hoped to avoid requiring changes to user code by providing additional functions. While working on #636, I have come to realise I was too ambitious. 

The best I can manage is to provide backward compatibility for calls to the Log4cxx class, but require users who extend Log4cxx to modify code.
