I'm in a situation (RHEL 5.1) where the only "supported" version of Apache is 2.2.3. We are wishing to avail of the session affinity load balancing features in mod_proxy_balancer, and I'm wondering what the general consensus is on how suitable that version is regarding that feature.
Are you using the Red Hat supplied version of Apache? Keep in mind that they backport patches from later 2.2 releases and from trunk, but their version number stays the same.
Review the source RPM to see what's really going on. It has its own Changes file.
Even if you were to use vanilla 2.2.3, do you have any information that the features you need were not up to snuff in that version?
In any case I'd recommend that you set up a test installation and see if what you need to work, works. That way you have your own benchmark.
