Misleading example for <IfDefine> in core directives

The description for <IfDefine> in docs/2.2/mod/core.html has the
following text:

<IfDefine> sections are nest-able, which can be used to implement
simple multiple-parameter tests. Example:

|httpd -DReverseProxy ...|
| |
| # httpd.conf|
| <IfDefine ReverseProxy>|
| LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so|
| LoadModule proxy_module modules/libproxy.so|
| </IfDefine>

|

The text implies that the example demonstrates a simple multi-parameter
test, however it doesn't.

Sorry I haven't got a patch for this but it should be pretty simple to
work one up.

I am in the process of updating the Apache Pocket Reference for Apache
2.2 (pub date is August) and will probably come up with a number of such
nits as I go through all the documentation and source code.

Regards
Andrew

Looking forward to it. Good to see your voice on the list again.

Fixed in trunk as r658549.
I will backport in several hours or someone will do.
Thanks.
