options as --with-zlib=../zlib-1.2.3. It seems there is no common way
to learn the current directory in Win32 make's: although nmake has MAKEDIR
variable, nevertheless Borland make's MAKEDIR is the directory where make
is installed, and OpenWatcom wmake has no MAKEDIR at all.
*) Change in internal API: the HTTP modules initialization was moved
from the init module phase to the HTTP postconfiguration phase.
*) Change: now the request body is not read beforehand for the
ngx_http_perl_module: it's required to start the reading using the

"server_names_hash_bucket_size" directives.
