Sorry, not a bug: That's taken directly from perldoc
Apache2::ServerUtil. See the full doco and use cases at
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/ServerUtil.html#C_restart_co
unt_
Documentation on the deliberate restart:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/server.html#Server_Life_Cy
cle
"Apache 2.0 starts by parsing the configuration file. After the
configuration file is parsed, the PerlOpenLogsHandler handlers are
executed if any. After that it's a turn of PerlPostConfigHandler
handlers to be run. When the post_config phase is finished the server
immediately restarts, to make sure that it can survive graceful restarts
after starting to serve the clients."
For further info see the above documentation sections and the 1.0 to 2.0
porting guide: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/porting/compat.html
Cheers,
Andrew
