Right I think I have found what causes the crash. The problem is that
somewhere in ColdFusion, I suspect one of those external ODBC libraries,
the SIGPIPE handler gets reset. I have posted about this in the ColdFusion
forums, you can read more about it there.

So it turns out that the bug is in ColdFusion itself, and not in the
apache module after all.

What I have done as a workaround is run ColdFusion in CGI mode, but rather
than running cfml as the CGI program I run a wrapper that can detect when
the browser goes away and eats any output from the cfml script after the
disconnect. This way the SIGPIPE event can never occur.

I'm afraid this is all info I can give at the moment, since I'm using all
kinds of other beta stuff which I would not want to let loose on the
community :)

Of course the real solution is for someone at MM to fix the SIGPIPE
handler getting reset.
