What patches do people want applied that are missing? I know there are several patches as port options on FreeBSD.

  Some of third party modules (from https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/modules/ https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/modules/) require patching, moreover if you want to just add a third party module to nginx you should recomplile nginx with configure flag --add-module=<directory> pointing to the module directory because nginx doesn't support dynamic loading of modules.

    Soon it shall. Tengine is the solution to that in the meantime though

      It's already out in nginx 1.9.11.

        Unfortunately loadable modules in nginx still suck. Instead of having an ABI like apache does, nginx relies on signature checking for each module. This means that your modules still need to be built at the same time you build your nginx binary. If you decide later on you want to add a new module, you still need to rebuild nginx. Its so frustrating because it really introduces a lot of operational costs to an otherwise excellent piece of software. It was the most surprising thing about nginx since Apache has had loadable modules for a long time. There was some discussion about this when 1.9.11 was released that suggested that loadable modules wouldn't even be all that beneficial to package mantainers[1].

  Personally, I use the nginx-rtmp module [0] a lot, but building nginx for that isn't too much of a hassle. [0]: https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module https://github.com/arut/nginx-rtmp-module

  Many. My pretty standard setup has about 10 custom modules cache tools, LuaJIT, etc.
