That's bad news... The max number of connections (default 100, I
think) for MySQL can be adjusted (and maybe it has been already). I
would double (and triple) check to see if there are httpd processes
that open more than one connection to the database. It will become
very important that the software only make use of as many database
connections as it needs.

simultaneously!
