More a "the design of the library just doesn't work for these kinds of process 
lifecycles" problem, there are issues open on I suspect related issues in the 
Shibboleth issue tracker, I don't have a specific issue number at hand right 
this second.

I believe there are a number of issues around changes to that code, some other 
changes in the SP to deal with the Apache permission issues, etc.

At this point if you can use syslog you can probably avoid a lot of this mess 
since native.log doesn't really get used much anyway, and another key is to 
make sure the logger setting in shibboleth2.xml isn't set and it's not trying 
to reload logging configuration.

This trace also suggests prefork is being used, which should never be used with 
mod_shib, that's a DOS attack waiting to happen.
