 I think that wrapper needs this cleanup function and first thing which wrapper 
must do
 on cleanup is to stop JVM. Otherwise you may easily get a runaway JVM
 which will create a serious problem:
 the only way to start new apache process will be to kill runaway JVM manually
 and then start apache.
 So I think instead of adding SIGHUP handler it will be better to implement
 this cleanup function which will call
 wrapper_shutdown(0);
