yeah...

I'm very tempted to blame this on the particular combination of the module,
your mod_perl version, and your Devel::Cover version, since I've seen this
kind of thing before.  in reality, it doesn't look all that much like an
Apache-Test-specific issue, since A-T issues all the kill commands but the
server doesn't respond.  my personal experience with D::C under mod_perl is
that it works great most of the time, but when it doesn't you know it, and
it manifests its problems like this at best, and segfaults like crazy at worst.

the only way to determine whether this is really an A-T issue would be to
use MakeMaker's testcover target and see if it's behavior differs from that
of M::B.
