    This could be the same dying-daemons problem that was due to a bug
    in the swap code that was trying to optimize for low swap-space situations.
    If you have lots of swap space free, that isn't it though.

    With apache it is particularly difficult to discern whether the crash is
    due to the kernel or due to a big in apache.  Since apache setuid()'s
    itself, core dumps are disabled.  The only way to catch it in the act
    is to attach a debugger to the running process and wait for it to 
    segfault, but there are usually too many apache (httpd) processes running
    to be able to do that effectively.
