httpd.conf changes don't apply when restarting the Apache service

           Summary: httpd.conf changes don't apply when restarting the
                    Apache service
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.40
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Runtime Config
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: psychosos@gmx.at


When I restart the Apache (2.0.40) service on Windows 2000 Pro with "apache -k restart" changes 
made to the httpd.conf file don't apply, Apache uses the old settings, though the configuration 
file is reparsed (i.e. Apache tells me any syntax errors in it - it doesn't shutdown in this 
case)
Easy workaround is to use "apache -k stop" and "apache -k start".

It is also notable that 
"apacke -k stop" usually takes some seconds while "apache -k restart" returns immediately.
