apache: several vulnerabilities

FYI, these (except possibly for CVE 2008-0005) were fixed in the latest Debian "Etch" release, 4.0r3, in apache version 1.3.34-4.1+etch1. For some reason it was not deemed necessary to issue a Debian Security Advisory, but people with the usual lines in their sources.list should get the update automatically on their next APT update and upgrade.
