idle httpd childs consuming 100% cpu

As an update, I ran gdb on several of the spinning httpd processes, and noticed 
it was stuck in an 
ImageMagick function, which was being loaded by mod_perl for a particular web 
application.

After removing "use Image::Magick" from my mod_perl startup scripts, this 
problem was resolved.  
The interesting part was that the parts of the web application that made use of 
ImageMagick were 
no longer accessible.  This seems to just be an issue with loading the module, 
not with actually 
using it.  It was also interesting because only a small percentage of httpd 
processes would spin as 
described, and all processes would have to have loaded Image::Magick.

Even though this was caused by Image::Magick, it seems to me like there's still 
possibly an 
underlying apache bug...  I would have expected apache to have killed off a 
spinning child.  I would 
have also expected these PIDs to be listed in /server-status.

I'm not this bug's original requestor, so don't mark this bug resolved.
