      MaxRequestsPerChild be set to 0 to prevent the child process
from ever recycling. However, for those that do require a
non-zero setting, this patch fixes a serious bug that can cause
an apparent 'server-hang' condition where the server stops
responding to requests for a period of time. Prior to this
fix, when the child process handled MaxRequestsPerChild
connnections, the child process would stop accepting new
connections and begin allowing inactive threads to exit. The
problem was that a new process would not be created to begin
handling requests until the old process fully exited. The old
process can take an indeterminate amount of time to exit because
it may be sending large responses to clients connected over slow
links, or it may have threads blocked in read awaiting requests
(eg, one attack mode of the Nimda worm is to establish a
connection to the server but not send an HTTP request. This
connection will be timed out according to the setting of the
Timeout directive, 300 seconds). This fix allows the new process
to be immediately started and begin accepting requests when the
old child process reaches MaxRequestsPerChild.
