     2.4.x patch: trunk patch works mod CHANGES
     +1: jim, covener
+    trawick: [I guess I'm just confused but] I thought that the scenario as
+             described by the reporter was that this code was running while
+             a bunch (nearly all) of httpd children were zombies, leading to
+             a connect() timeout since no processes were available to empty
+             the TCP queue.  IIUC, the scoreboard state will not yet have 
+             been changed to SERVER_DEAD and the pid will not have been 
+             cleared for those processes, since parent code that can't run 
+             while we're stuck in this function takes care of that, so we'll
+             still block.
