The problem is that in Apache 2.0.54 (and below) there was no way for 
the compiler to know the numeric version. Starting with 2.2 they added a 
define for AP_SERVER_MAJORVERSION_NUMBER.

So what I did was assume that if that wasn't defined then we were 
dealing with Apache 2.0 otherwise 2.2.

In at least 2.0.58 someone added this define in and caused the code to 
blow up.
