Comment 8 Joe Orton 2020-09-02 08:25:49 UTC
The way the feature was implemented in the patch attached to the the upstream bug report unnecessarily changed (i.e. broke backwards compatibility) the mod_proxy API.  I have re-implemented the feature a different way, patch in the following github Pull Request:

https://github.com/apache/httpd/pull/135

This has passed upstream testing so I will merge it shortly.
