Graham Dumpleton updated MODPYTHON-89:
--------------------------------------

Description:
Add new function:

apache.exists_config_define()

The intent is that this function would wrap the underlying Apache function:

ap_exists_config_define()

This function allows one to determine if certain Apache command line options
 were used. For example, if the '-DONE_PROCESS' command line option was used
 in explicitly starting "httpd".

if apache.exists_config_define("ONE_PROCESS"): ... do something

Exposing of this function would provide equivalent functionality to the "IfD
efine" directive available in Apache configuration files.

The availability of this option would allow special debugging code to consul
t whether Apache is run in one process mode and thus determine whether the d
ebugging code should be able to be run in the first place. Eg. pdb support.
