Please sync apache2 2.2.8-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
Debian has accepted our modification (OpenDocument integration and LDFLAGS modification). The init.d modification is no longer relevant because debian has changed the way the pid file is defined.

Changelog since current hardy version 2.2.6-3ubuntu2:

apache2 (2.2.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version:
    - Fixes cross-site scripting issues in
      o mod_imagemap (CVE-2007-5000)
      o mod_status (CVE-2007-6388)
      o mod_proxy_balancer's balancer manager (CVE-2007-6421)
    - Fixes a denial of service issue in mod_proxy_balancer's balancer manager
      (CVE-2007-6422).
    - Fixes mod_proxy URL encoding in error messages (closes: #337325).
    - Adds explicit charset to the output of various modules to work around
      possible cross-site scripting flaws affecting web browsers that do not
      derive the response character set as required by RFC2616. For
      mod_proxy_ftp there is now the new ProxyFtpDirCharset directive to
      specify something else than ISO-8859-1 (CVE-2008-0005).
    - Adds mod_substitute which performs inline response content pattern
      matching (including regex) and substitution (like mod_line_edit).
    - Adds "DefaultType none" option.
    - Adds new "B" option to RewriteRule to suppress URL unescaping.
    - Adds an "if" directive for mod_include to test whether an URL is
      accessible, and if so, conditionally display content.
    - Adds support for mod_ssl to the event MPM.
  * Move the configuration of User, Group, and PidFile to
    /etc/apache2/envvars. This makes it easier to use these settings in
    scripts. /etc/apache2/envvars can now also be used to influence apache2ctl
    (inspired by Marc Haber's patch). (Closes: #349709, #460105, #458085)
  * Make apache2ctl check the configuration syntax before trying to restart
    apache, to match the behaviour documented in the man page.
    (Closes: #459236)
  * Convert docs to be directly viewable with a browser (and not use content
    negotiation).
  * Add doc-base entry for the documentation. (closes: #311269)
  * Don't ship default files in /var/www, but copy a sample file to
    /var/www/index.html on new installs. Also remove the now unneeded
    RedirectMatch line from sites-available/default.
    (Closes: #411774, #458093)
  * Add some information to README.Debian (Apache wiki, default virtual host)
  * Build with LDFLAGS=-Wl,--as-needed to drop a lot of unnecessary
    dependencies, easing library transitions (closes: #458857).
  * Add icons for OpenDocuments, add sharutils to Build-Depends for uudecode.
    Patch by Nicolas Valcárcel. (Closes: #436441)
  * Add reportbug script to list enabled modules.
  * Fix some lintian warnings:
    - Pass --no-start to dh_installinit instead of omitting the debhelper token
      in various maintainer scripts. Also move the update-rc.d call to
      apache2.2-common.
    - Add Short-Description to init script.
  * Remove unused apache2-mpm-prefork.prerm from source package and clean up
    debian/rules a bit.
  * Don't ship NEWS.Debian with apache2-utils, as the contents are only
    relevant for the server.
