Author 3.2b5 : mod_python doesn't handle properly signals like KILL,

Hi,

I recently installed mod_python 3.2b5 on Apache 2.0.54. I am running with
problems if httpd slave process segfaults or is killed. In this case,
master process restart the max number of processes/threads. We are running
Apache with the MPM worker (on Tru64 platform).

This behaviour appears only if mod_python is loaded into Apache. this
doesn't seem to be related to mod_python usage : this can happen if you
load mod_python even if no URL is configured to use it. You can easily
reproduce the problem by doing 'kill -KILL' of an Apache slave process.

Is it a known issue ? Are they any workaround ?

Thanks in advance.

Michel

ps : I know this version is not production quality but this behaviour was
worst with 3.1. (happening even with graceful restart).
