Use a CustomLog and add the format-string %P to the log entry. This
returns the process id of the daemon handling the request. If you then
set up a checking script to identify rogue processes when they occur,
you can get the time and pid of the bad request and comparing this with
the log-file should identify the request that triggered the rogue.
