TODO:
* Port connection portion to other DBMS?  Genericize the module?  Start with 
  PostgreSQL. (provider mechanism, and libDBI)
* does determining table name in massvirtual mode upon every request
  cause performance degradation?  If so fix.
* LogSQLRotateLogs directive with daily/monthly/weekly/etc.
* new format char: IP as bigint? ( not w/ ipV6 )
* socket-based middleman daemon with configurable conns, or connect/disconnect.
	DBI connection pool when I switch to DBI.
* ignore by cookie
* tools to import logs into SQL (waiting on permission from author)
* Directive to yes/no create ancillary tables (or just access table)
* break module into separate code files
    separate DB implimentation into sub-modules via provider mechanism
    separate module for SSL support
	apache version specific code already split into separate files.
* add document building to Makefile.in
* investigate thread safety issues (libmysqlclient_r)

CHANGES:
1.93: 2004-01-20
* Compiles for apache 1.3 AND 2.0
* split apache version specific functions to seperate header files
* split apache version specific includes to seperate header files
* added wrapper defines for apache 1.3
* updated configure m4 scripts to detect both apache versions at the same time 
	and assign defines as to which version was found.
* made install default to not activate module in configuration files.
	(use make activate)

1.92: 2004-01-05
* fixed compilation issue with mysql 4.x where mysql_error returns const char *
* Have SSL support compiling (though not really tested)
* updated configure macros to detect mod_ssl.h
* configure now uses --with-apxs instead of --with-apache
* Added documentation from 1.19b (needs to be update)
* Fixed an issue with dependencies in Makefile.in

1.91: 2003-12-23
* Added checks for MySQL to autoconf
* fixed merge code to work correctly.
* Merged in 1.19b1 changes
* Hostnames are now converted to lowercase in the mass-virtual naming section.
  The loop that converts dots to underscores has been optimized as well.
* New directive LogSQLTableType allows one to specify the kind of table that
  the module makes during table creation (e.g. InnoDB, MyISAM).  Thanks to Jim
  Turner for the suggestion and patch.  If your MySQL server does not support
  the specified type, it will create a MyISAM table instead.
* Directives can now be placed in the 'main' server config and will be
  inherited by the virtual hosts.  This means a LOT less repetition: you only
  specify the item once to have it inherited, but it can still be overridden
  on a virtualhost level.  These can be specified in this manner:

		LogSQLTransferLogTable
		LogSQLTransferLogFormat
		LogSQLPreserveFile
		LogSQLNotesLogTable
		LogSQLHeadersInLogTable
		LogSQLHeadersOutLogTable
		LogSQLCookieLogTable
		LogSQLRemhostIgnore
		LogSQLRequestIgnore
		LogSQLRequestAccept
		LogSQLWhichNotes
		LogSQLWhichHeadersOut
		LogSQLWhichHeadersIn
		LogSQLWhichCookies
		LogSQLWhichCookie

1.90: 2003-12-22
* updated code to compile under apache 2.0
* rewrote and consolidate configuration handler routines
* made all functions static.
* made delayed insert configurable, instead of compile time
* moved to my autoconfigure support

1.18:
* Delayed inserts (a MySQL extension) are now available at compile-time.
  THIS IS UGLY because there seems to be a bug in the way MySQL returns
  errors on failed INSERT DELAYED queries.  See the FAQ.
* Reworked the Makefile a tad.
* Added stdlib.h to the includes, some systems need it for atoi(). Added
  string.h to the includes just to be safe.
* Reworked table creation (again).  Inserts are attempted and tables
  are made only on ER_NO_SUCH_TABLE.  This should solve all the multiple-
  creation-attempt issues as well as reduce overhead.
* safe_mysql_query reworked; it now can be counted on to preserve_entry()
  if the query doesn't succeed.  [Before, preserve_entry() was called
  separately.]
* Always reset SIGPIPE to handler before leaving safe_mysql_query().
* New directive LogSQLRequestAccept, another filter for excluding things
  from being logged.
* Alphabetized the directives in the reference section of the docs. Christopher Powell
