Since no one has replied, I feel obligated to add more information about
the problem identified. 

I captured the tcp requests with tcpdump from ab 2.0.43 (OK) requests
and ab 2.0.47 (TIMEOUT) requests. I hope that anyone may comment this
updated information, and if possible, to test it also on their local
server.

[root@vitoria root]# /usr/sbin/tcpdump -i lo port 80

// [ab 2.0.47] --> /opt/apache-httpd-2.0.43/bin/ab localhost/
