Upstream bug filed with Apache:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44975

They suggested applying this patch:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=654119

Test packages available in my PPA.

This patch fixes half of the problem. It solves the out-of-memory errors, however, SSL connections are simply dropped when the server is flooded. Note that Feisty's apache2+mod_ssl is able to handle the flood on both the client and server without errors.
