Um... This is an incredibly dangerous change. This makes Apache shutdown
one threaded process at a time. I think we have all downloaded tarballs
that are hundreds of megs, which can take a few hours to download. What
happens if while my server is serving one of those files, I need to do a
graceful restart to re-config my server. If the first process shutdown is
the one with the thread serving a three hour request, then my server won't
actually restart for 3 hours.
