This is from the 'deleted_files' test, which is disabled by default
because it may give false-positive results.

The result is saying that the system reports the
processes, /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd and /usr/bin/perl, have file
descriptors open for files which no longer exist, which is suspicious.

Look for ALLOWPROCDELFILE in the config file to see about whitelisting.
