Hi All,

A quick build for OS/2 - 
https://smedley.id.au/tmp/httpd-2.4.49-os2-20210919.zip

No OS/2 specific fixes - but I also took the opportunity to bump to the 
latest openssl 1.1.1o

Cheers,

Paul

                 Apache HTTP Server 2.4.49 Released

    September 15, 2021

    The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project
    are pleased to announce the release of version 2.4.49 of the Apache
    HTTP Server ("Apache").  This version of Apache is our latest GA
    release of the new generation 2.4.x branch of Apache HTTPD and
    represents fifteen years of innovation by the project, and is
    recommended over all previous releases. This release of Apache is
    a security, feature and bug fix release.

    We consider this release to be the best version of Apache available, and
    encourage users of all prior versions to upgrade.

    Apache HTTP Server 2.4.49 is available for download from:

      https://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

    Apache 2.4 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance
    boosts over the 2.2 codebase.  For an overview of new features
    introduced since 2.4 please see:

      https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/new_features_2_4.html

    Please see the CHANGES_2.4 file, linked from the download page, for a
    full list of changes. A condensed list, CHANGES_2.4.49 includes only
    those changes introduced since the prior 2.4 release.  A summary of 
all    of the security vulnerabilities addressed in this and earlier 
releases    is available:

      https://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html

    This release requires the Apache Portable Runtime (APR), minimum
    version 1.5.x, and APR-Util, minimum version 1.5.x. Some features may
    require the 1.6.x version of both APR and APR-Util. The APR libraries
    must be upgraded for all features of httpd to operate correctly.

    This release builds on and extends the Apache 2.2 API.  Modules written
    for Apache 2.2 will need to be recompiled in order to run with Apache
    2.4, and require minimal or no source code changes.

      https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/VERSIONING

    When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please bear in mind
    that if you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs (other
    than the Prefork MPM), you must ensure that any modules you will be
    using (and the libraries they depend on) are thread-safe.

    Please note the 2.2.x branch has now passed the end of life at the 
Apache
    HTTP Server project and no further activity will occur including 
security
    patches.  Users must promptly complete their transitions to this 2.4.x
    release of httpd to benefit from further bug fixes or new features.
