Status update: things are looking better. I have a basically working 2.4
package now, with dh_apache2 and all. I think we'll have to ignore the
test suite failures for the apache2 transition and look at them later.

My time is up for tonight, but I hope to push something tomorrow, either
to the 'master' branch or a separate one.

I'm currently versioning this as 2.0.9~httpd24-r1449661-1, which is
something of a lie as the httpd24 branch predates the 2.0.8 release.
OTOH 2.0.8+httpd24-r1449661-1 isn't much closer to the truth either. I
guess we shouldn't care at this point.

If somebody could look at merging the upstream SVN httpd24 branch with
the 2.0.8 release, that would be great. We're going to need at least
the Perl 5.18 fixes next.
