Re: mod_perl 1.30 seg faults

Hi Brian,

That bug was fixed in mod_perl 1.31.

Sure you can upgrade to last 1.x mod_perl.

Maybe modperl isn't playing nicely with perl 5.10.1 (the old machine had 5.10.0)?  Luckily it's not causing a problem since the core dump doesn't happen during a regular request.  However it was fun watching the machine try to write 20gb of core dumps every few minutes....
