I had exactly the same issue, well, not with a plugin but i had a requestAction 
in my default layout to grab the nav for my admin section.

I got a little bit further in debugging and found that any time a cake error 
occured (bad db credentials, missing view etc..) then apache would segfault 
because cake is stuck in a loop trying to pump out errors.

unfortunately i didnt have more time to figure out *why* cake is looping like 
that, i just removed my requestAction and changed my app slightly.

But, I would love to know why and get it fixed as I would prefer to be able to 
use requestAction wherever i like without fear of blowing up the server.

(btw, it happened on both a gentoo apache and ubuntu apache)

thanks,

Martin
