Description

For next_stable, make sure that the networking classes(e.g. TCP/UDP sockets, inet protocols, etc) are able to be swapped out for different implementations. This is to accomplish:

• Optional dependency on APR, so that you can use boost instead of APR for sockets.
• Optional networking - allow log4cxx to be built without networking support

Some sort of factory to create new sockets would probably accomplish this in a clean manner.
