That's absolutely normal. See:

Hmm, I've compared the trace generated on my machine during the:
% strace perl t/TEST modules/httpdconf
and it's very different. Are you running the same test?
What perl/apache/linux kernel/gcc/ versions are you using? I'm sure thing
didn't try it on kernel 2.4 yet. I prefer to wait a little before all the
bugs will be gleaned out.
