It compiled but did not get loaded correctly into the Apache 2 I was using.  I asked a friend to was trying to use it at MIT, but they gave up and used IP-based ACLS.

Somone asked my why I work on this free (http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/)
software & hardware (http://q3u.be) stuff and not get a real job.
Charles Shultz had the best answer:

"Why do musicians compose symphonies and poets write poems? They do it
because life wouldn't have any meaning for them if they didn't. That's why
I draw cartoons. It's my life." -- Charles Shultz
