The env var handling in mod_perl 1.x looks like serious voodoo too me. Do you have some PerlPassEnv configured here?

There's lots I don't understand here.

1) this is reported against RHEL5 but bug 173424 seems to be talking about RHEL4/3 only. Is this problem reproducible on RHEL5 at all? With the RHEL5 httpd/mod_perl stack? mod_perl 1.x is *way* different from 2.x.

2) The report says:

"rpmlib start to leaks and it will result in seg faults of httpd."

is this two separate problems? A memory leak, and an unrelated crash? A memory leak which is leading to OOM and hence httpd crashing? Or do you not mean "start to leaks" but "starts to corrupt memory", or what? Or is it just conjecture that rpmlib is involved?
