Upgrading svn.collab.net's httpd?

I'm running into a bug with ra_serf that can be traced to an Apache httpd
bug present in all 2.0.x servers. That series doesn't do lingering close
correctly and is really noticable when MaxKeepAliveRequests is absurdly
low. This bug is fixed in httpd 2.1.8+ (i.e. 2.2.x is fine). (The 'fix'
is to restore 1.3's lingering close behavior.)

Regardless of svn.collab.net's version, serf can now handle this bug
gracefully, but the presence of this bug doesn't help matters. So, I'll
kindly ask that we consider upgrading our server to a more modern version
of httpd - like, say 2.2.0. =)

Also, it'd be nice if we can push up MaxKeepaliveRequests to something
reasonable - like at least 1000. The default in httpd is 100 but
svn.collab.net has it set to 10 (which is why I hit this bug pretty hard).
I think even 100 is really low for a Subversion httpd server and for the
types of operations that it can perform.

If you need any assistance, I'm more than willing to make myself available
in any way that I can.

Thanks. -- justin
