Description FiLiS 2016-04-28 13:30:59 UTC 
We didn't expect modules to be built as dynamic by default, which hurts us pretty severely, since we cannot work around it in the config file, as nginx lacks something like Apache's IfModule directive. 
Could you add a switch to get back to the port's default behavior of building static modules so people relying on this have more time to adopt?
When running multiple nginx instances, mixed 1.8 and 1.10 with the same config templates, this breaks everything.

Hi Philip,

thanks for report.

It looks like a feature request isn't it?

Also, please note there is no more 1.8.
