How can I get the Apache server number?

[Adam Woodworth <mi...@gmail.com>]

Say you're using the prefork MPM and you have 200 Apache children.  Is
there a way, within mod_perl, to find out what the server number is
for the apache child in which mod_perl is running?  Not the PID
number, but the server number (or whatever it's called) -- i.e., a
number between 1 and 200 that indicates which "slot" you're taking up
in the Apache list of children.

Thanks!
Adam

By looking at the apache source code, I've determined that the
connection->id is the server slot number when using the pre-fork MPM.
Yay!
