This is fixed in httpd-trunk, I suspect it can be closed at this point.

What mod_disk_cache was doing was attempting to clean up after itself  
in certain well defined failure cases, but didn't register a pool  
cleanup to do it. As a result, if a filter decided to fail, such as  
the network filter because a client went away, the temp files were  
left behind and became orphaned.

Regards,
Graham
