I have looked deeper into the Apache bug database. Problem 869 looks to raise
three separate issues. I have resolved two of the three but the third problem
seems to persist and might be my root cause.
Problem 869 includes a make report with 4 items of unsigned long assigned to
int, one error about an infinite loop program may not terminate and the ERROR:
Undefined symbol: .__set_errno128
I can fix the unsigned long to int type by retyping the variables. I can fix
the ERROR: Undefined symbol: .__set_errno128 by using flags -lm variable. I
cannot fix the compiler's warning about the infinite loop. Might this be my
zombie process? Might it also lead to the condition of the server ceasing to
serve pages?
I am going to find an AIX 4.2.0 machine and do the compile there and see if I
get any of these errors.
