[openbeos] Apache 2.0 update

First - thanks to Peter moore.

The DBEOS flag helped it compile, just FYI, you still have to explicitly state a prefix as the default will not work with just the DBEOS flags.

Secondly - its still broken ;) Browsers can connect, they dont timeout, and as soon as the server is stopped, the page is rendered into the browser windows - looks like something isnt being sent at the end to let them know that the page download is complete. This was with R5 netserver, installing BONE just completely hosed my BeOS setup. None of this is surprising or worrying.

Quick question: Should we still ask project developers if they can make their code work with BeOS R5 or should we hold off till there is something more OBOS specific. I know that binary and source compatibility is aimed for, but this article http://open-beos.sourceforge.net/nsl.php?15 shows that a different network stack is in place from BeOS R5. If i do bug-hunt and try and get devs to fix things like apache for R5, will they then have to turn around and reimplement parts of it once OBOS appears ?? (ie am i wasting their time ?)

Regards,
Nik
