the above assumes that ap_create_scoreboard() will no longer call
exit()... sorry if that was unclear

I would much prefer allowing the pre-mpm hook to signal an error
rather than introducing another API function. Alternatively, the MPM
could set an error indicator and return an error when it hits
ap_mpm_run(). But that is a little messy too.
