Thanks, I think you just diagnosed one of our support requests. flx, can 
you write and send in a patch to the apache maintainers?  (Zam has a 
huge backlog of tasks....)  Zam, can you send the support requestor this

So, we now have 0 bug reports resulting from going into -mm. 

Could be that we ask to go into it next week.....:)
