Just want to briefly confirm this one (using debian etch's 2.2.3)

Ran into it in a reverse proxy setup and did now switch to using mod_disk_cache
+ tmpfs. That seems to have solved the problem for us. 

It's a nasty show-stopper and opens gates for denial-of-service (or call it
corrupt-service?) attacks. Think a warning should be added to the docs.

Will drop back when I have found time to do some synthetic tests so I may give
more detail.
