I don't think the client did any Fetch when apache stopped.

I attached gdb to each of the httpd's, and among 20 processes (with 50
threads each), 8 of them were stuck with the do_post thing, and others were
not doing anything !. The error_log didn't say anything about the error..

I'm thinking of having the SEM_UNDO flag while creating the semaphore (if
it's not already enabled)


There's one more thing I noticed (might be specific to HP-UX) : I saw more
errors with keepalive ON rather than when it was OFF.
