Echo module missing (regression?)

[arty]

I have nginx-full package installed:

    # apt-cache policy nginx-full
    nginx-full:
      Installed: 0.8.54-4ppa16~maverick

Description of nginx-full package lists Echo module among included modules:

    # apt-cache show nginx-full
    …
    MODULES INCLUDED:
    …
    Third Party Modules:
    Upstream Fair Queue, Echo

I included basic example from Echo documentation (http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpEchoModule#echo) in my server config:

    server {
        location /hello {
            echo "hello, world!";
        }
    }

However nginx fails to load this config:

    # service nginx reload
    Reloading nginx configuration: [emerg]: unknown directive "echo" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/123:3
    configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

Here's a discussion about adding echo module: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666916

This has been added back for 0.8.54-5. It will be in the version of Nginx that I am building tonight.
