Comment 1 for bug 235294

Under heavy loads apache2-mpm-worker will segfault, upstream has fixed this for apache-2.2.9 however it is not fixed for 2.2.8. I have backported this patch to 2.2.8. There should be no regressions when this patch has been introduced. I have attached the patch which fixes this.

TEST CASE:

1. Install apache2-mpm-worker in a KVM environment.
2. tail -f the apache error log file
3. Fun the following command: for i in `seq 1 100`; do ab -n 100000 -c 20 http://<ip address/ ; done
