Okay, the -T option can stay.

But, after hacking on this a bit, I think the level of spaghetti factor
in the current main loop is totally unacceptable. And I think it would
take me too long to unravel it. So I'm going to be unpleasant and
demand that you either:

  * Eliminate the -S and -F options (-F never had any effect) and
refactor the code so that there is a completely independent while() loop
for connection_mode_fork and connection_mode_thread, or

  * Back out your change. It's not maintainable as-is.

It may also be worthwhile to factor out the listen_once mode of
operation into its own little if block before any while loops happen;
that's optional.

If neither APR_HAS_FORK nor APR_HAS_THREADS is defined, the code can
error out or serve one connection at a time, whichever is less code.
There are no platforms we care about with this characteristic, so the
dominating factor is simplicity.
