Wonderful! After nagios stopped working, I downgraded apache back to 2.2
and put it in IgnorePkg, I didn't think it was a matter of just waiting for
the next update. 2.4.7-2 is working fine for me.

Also, having mod_proxy_html and mod_xml2enc as part of the core apache
package instead of having to get them from AUR is an improvement (the AUR
PKGFILE for mod_proxy_html doesn't even compile mod_xml2enc even though the
sources are downloaded in the tarball, I had to add it by hand).

Thanks Anatol!
