mod_ssl stops responding to requests

Summary: mod_ssl stops responding to requests
Product: Apache httpd-2.0
Version: 2.0.35
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: Other
Component: mod_ssl
AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: thc@frognet.net


I'd noticed that my 2.0.35 server would, within 15 minutes of starting, stop
responding to HTTPS requests -- HTTP requests continue without a problem.
Thinking this might have been resolved recently, I snagged a copy of the
sources from CVS, compiled, and am getting the same result.

In my SSLLog I saw references to mutex-related locking issues, as follows:

--
[17/Apr/2002 00:30:32 14451] [info] Connection to child 13 established (server
techbox.frognet.net:443, client 216.3.2.38)
[17/Apr/2002 00:30:32 14451] [info] Seeding PRNG with 136 bytes of entropy
[17/Apr/2002 00:30:32 14451] [warn] Failed to acquire global mutex lock
[17/Apr/2002 00:30:32 14451] [warn] Failed to release global mutex lock
--

I recompiled using the following:
EXTRA_CFLAGS="-g" ./configure \
--enable-so \
--enable-ssl \
--disable-charset-lite \
--disable-negotiation && make
.. set SSLLogLevel to debug, and tried different SSLMutex types, all with the
same end result: within a few minutes of starting Apache stops responding to
HTTPS requests but continues to serve HTTP.

I'm on a Red Hat 7.2 box with OpenSSL 0.9.6b; I'll attach the SSLLog and gdb
backtrace..
