Package: apache2
Version: 2.2.3-2

Same bug existed with Apache 2.0.x. I just thought that it might be 
something as simple as extra / in the end of ProxyPass directive. You can 
actually see the same bug in action by using it directly like 
http://localhost:8002//

vdradmind shouldn't crash when given bad url. This looks more like a DoS 
condition (for example autotimers won't work when vdradmind isn't running)
