One thing I have done in the past to deal with such problems is to put
"ulimit -t 600" in the start script for apache.  Then when apache processes 
got into infinite loops they would only do so for a maximum of 10 mins.  On a 
two-processor machine that worked fairly well as the problem didn't occur 
enough to have both processors running looping apache's.

When I saw the problem it was a webmail system running IMP.  Something related 
to PHP 4.x was causing the problem.  I never bothered tracking that down as I 
had too many other problems to deal with.
