It is code not under my control in the Second Life viewer (Linden Labs).
I suggested to the second life mailing list to use,
pkg-config --cflags apr-1
Flame Bait, but if you aren't supposed to use,
#include <apr1.0/apr.h>
or
#include <apr1/apr.h>
then why put the header files in /usr/include for the compiler to find?
Not really looking for an answer, thanks for looking into the original
bug.
