Sorry BUT IT IS NOT A BUG. You are free to use external spawning to
handle the load. You are free to use inetd or a master server, but this
not having to deal with it in the webserver is a very choice.

So sorry, it is not the problem of the lighttpd guys if your application
and deployment is crap.
