Apache core dump when using LDAP authentification.

I believe the error is in the shared memory handling. After a lot of 
scaffolding, I found it was dying at line 396 of util_ldap_cache_mgr.c, in 
util_ald_cache_insert(), when node->add_time is set to the current time.

On the assumption this indicated some sort of memory allocation problem when 
creating node, I then had a look at util_ald_alloc(). If the call to 
apr_rmm_addr_get() is replaced with a simple calloc(), the problem goes away.
