I suspect that doug's original fix probably wasn't undone, but that instead you're running into some iteration of this problem with how perl itself represents the pid: http://marc.info/?t=106632745100005&r=1&w=2 so, if you have the ability, you might want to try the same experiment with a non-threaded perl and prefork mpm and see if you have the same issue. other than that I really don't know - there were a few different pid issues floating around, iirc, all having to do with how $$ behaves (as opposed to what is really going on) sorry I'm not of more help. --Geoff
