  Description     : Apache with lingerd support

Apache compiled with the lingerd extension, which takes over the job of 
properly closing network connections.  Lingerd is a separate daemon with
support from apache that needs to be compiled in.

This may be something that the apache team might want to take over and 
put together as another branch of the apache packages and their cousins.

There is a little bit of patch integration to be dealt with, but it's doable.
If utilized properly, we've seen lingerd increase speed by dramatic amounts on
high-end sites, such as slashdot, sourceforge, etc.
