Re: [2.0.48] ap_log_error slow on win32

["William A. Rowe, Jr." <wr...@rowe-clan.net>]

Stas,

  we attempt to lock all writes to a file whenever we have a file opened for 
append, as unix has this behavior naturally while Win32 does not.

  I'd focus on the speed of obtaining that lock.  I'd noticed similar before,
myself, and 1/2 suspect that the lock is also flushing the file from cache.
