It's on my list; I just ran out of time during the last push before I got
to the shibboleth-sp2 backport.  The intent is to branch for
wheezy-backports and then revert the packaging conversion to Apache 2.4.
It needs a bit of work to compare against the packaging for wheezy and
make sure that all the necessary glue for Apache 2.2 has been added back
in.  I think I have another hour or two of work left and then will have
something that should work.
