I just finished some digging and testing, and the lazy linking was correct. Apache is linking against the 1.0 version of APR, but OS X is not binding symbols until the first time each function is called. I've never attempted to lookup the (local|remote)_addr attributes on the connection object, so I never triggered a call to makesockaddr() and the resultant apr_sockaddr_get_port() call. I hacked the hello world example to retrieve that attribute, and the apache child process bombed and was killed. Error log excerpt and test script below.



from mod_python import apache

def handler(req):


    apache.log_error('req.connection.local_addr = %s' % req.connection.local_addr);
    req.content_type = "text/plain"
    req.write("Hello World!")

    return apache.OK
