Hello!

Sorry if this should be going to a different maillist or
a newsgroup...
I see it for a while, that time to time httpd (a forked child) 
gets some interrupt (often, or even always - 6)  and dumps the core.

E.g. today I found :
Feb 11 18:10:26 kurort /kernel: pid 15919 (httpd), uid 65534: exited on signal 6
(from the syslog)
and from the httpd log:

[Tue Feb 11 18:10:26 1997] httpd: caught SIGSEGV, dumping core

Nothing else...

Any idea what it can be ?
I was wondering if it can be some security hole ?

i am running apache 1.2b6,
with 2.1.6.1 (even after 020597)

Thanks.
