Weird...  I built with some OpenSSL 1.0.2 betas without problems, always

Yeah, I tested this multiple times and as soon as I go with openssl 

1.0.2 I got the same apr-util configuration error.

    I did find another problem.  I decided to try cmake 3.1.3 too just
    to see.  Its generated Makefiles for apr didn't build apr-1.pdb.
    Backed down to 2.8.10.2 and all good.

    So something is broken there.

Possibly I will have time to play with those further (possibly not).

I had other problems with anything newer than 2.8.10.2. pcretest was 

crashing with a stack overflow (some googling seemed to imply this was a 

link option issue with stack size).  Occurred with 2.8.12.2, 3.0.2 and 

3.1.3.  It didn't occur with 2.8.10.2 so I just stuck with that.  Not an 

httpd problem, but I thought I'd mention it.

FWIW, I don't have any issues building zlib 1.2.8 with its included
cmake support, which results in a working "nmake install".

Yeah, I discovered after my last message that zlib had cmake support. 

It's broken for AMD64 option, but I found a patch on on the zlib git 

repo that fixed it.

https://github.com/mastermind-/zlib/commit/3d1dd53460e146502a77019a35de79a78ccbea74

This is nice, I now have a fully scripted windows httpd build along with 

all of it's dependencies openssl, zlib, pcre, apr and apr-util.

Is it wrong that the build script is a .sh script running under cygwin? :)

This is awesome.  Once again thanks so much for the the help and pushes 

in the right direction.

Andy
