Re: rpm building experience

Thanks for your feedback over the last few days....I realized I hadn't
kept up-to-date on my apache RPM. It should be tagged at 0.8 now and
development on 0.9 is in the works.

You helped prod me to get the neon problem resolved and found an error in
bdb that I still don't understand how it got past the build but it is
fixed now.

I'll try to make sure things are up-to-date in the repository.
