I believe that ap_log_rerror() inserts the OS error description, resulting in something like:
[client 127.0.0.1] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: request line read error
Of course, this is OS dependent.
That still means little to me as an end user, as I would think a "request line read error" was some OS error that I needed to be concerned about, leading me on a wild goose chase.
What would make more sense is "Error while reading HTTP request line. (remote browser didn't send a request?)". This indicates exactly what httpd was trying to do when the error occurred, and gives a hint of why the error might have occurred.
The clearer the error message, the less chance of an admin wasting time fiddling in the dark trying to understand what it all means.
