where mod_lisp2-2.c (which is based on a different implementation) works has expected if the handler contains (sleep n).
But since mod_lisp2-2.c occasionally crashes Apache and has no support for the latest Edi's improvements (since is based on mod_lisp 2.33) I would say that the option to move back to apache 1.3 with the latest mod_lisp.c 2.38 is still a good move, until someone (Marco Antoniotti & Co.) with enough experience has time to port and test mod_lisp.c 2.38 to Apache2.
I'm interested to know if there is a reliable way to crash apache using "mod_lisp2-2.c". If so, I'll fix it. I am also willing to update the implementation with the 2.38 improvements, provided that it doesn't take more than a day or so.
The main problem is that I haven't been using the module. (I'm still using Apache 1.x.) I wrote the module for a colleague, so that he could use my server-side software, and I haven't heard about any problems from him.
Are there any other known problems with this code?
