php mysql+mysqli hangs up apache

[Tomasz Pala]

Hi,

apache-2.2.4-1	worker (no difference with prefork):
mod_alias
mod_asis
mod_auth_basic
mod_authn_file
mod_authz_groupfile
mod_authz_user
mod_cern_meta
mod_env
mod_expires
mod_include
mod_negotiation
mod_setenvif
mod_version
mod_authz_host
mod_log_config
mod_mime
mod_mime_magic
mod_ssl
mod_dir
mod_php

php 5.2.4-4	mysql mysqli

these two php modules are enough to make apache stop responding after:
# service httpd reload
leaving some semaphores set (AMD64). As it happens every log rotation,
I have to kill -9 httpd.worker once a week.
With apache-2.2.6-1 running on i686 'service httpd restart' makes the job.

I haven't noticed since when exactly, but AFAIR at PHP 5.2.1 it has
already been happening. Anyone?
