Yes. But Ralf said about the topic: "But I'm still not convinced whether
we
just need the surrounding #ifdef SHARED_MODULE ... #endif stuff. I really
have
to look deeper to make sure we solve the problem the correct way and not
introduce a new problem (perhaps a new memory leak)."
So real fix would be nice. Especially keeping in mind that 20th of
September
is closing and I think there will be quite some servers moving from
commercial
solutions to mod_ssl. Including 2 of mine servers + one new one :).

Maybe. But there seems to be leak or something in client Apache processes.
After 1day and 13hours uptime they grew from 5.3MB to ~19MB in size. Not as
serious as root server leak of course. Have to lower MaxRequestsPerChild for
now :).
