Discussing Lingerd's security history



Hello there.

I'm the maintainer of an unofficial Debian package named
apache-lingerd[1].

Lingerd is a patch for apache that enables a better handling of dynamic
pages serving.

The package works fine and a couple of users reported me that they 
use it on production servers.

There is a discussion curently about including this package in the
official Debian archive, but before I ask for such an upload to the
debian-apache team, I'd like to discuss here the security issues about
lingerd. 

Do you know any security problem related to the lingerd patch? Do you
think that proving such a flavour for Apache 1.3 would be safe?

Your comments are appreciated, that would let me know if I can ask for
an upload to the archive without putting a "trojan" inside Debian ;)
