After successfully upgrading from Apache 1.27 to 1.28, I noticed I started having zombies 
created (20 in 12 hours on a system that gets about 15 K hits per day); restarting apache 
killed the zombies.

The zombies looked like this:
$ ps -waux | grep Z
USER       
PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ   RSS TT   STAT STARTED       TIME COMMAND
visca     1962  0.0  0.0     0     0 
??  ZW    -          0:00.00 (perl)
vpopmail  5013  0.0  0.0     0     0 ??  ZW    -          0:00.00

upperlef  1962  0.0  0.0     0     0 ??  ZW    -          0:00.00 (perl)
etc.
