Well tell the Apache developers then. This is a FreeBSD group not an
Apache group, you can't expect the Apache developers to follow all
the OS newsgroups just in case someone reports an Apache bug there!

The Apache bug list is apache-bugs@apache.org. There's a web form on
the Apache site (www.apache.org).

Does anyone seeing this behaviour understand how to analyse a core
dump? If so can you provide a backtrace so I can see exactly where the
core dump is being triggered.
