I've no strong objection to this but it deserves a comment in the code 
describing why that apr_pool_clear call is redundant; a thorough 
reviewer would remove it since it *should* be redundant, reslist pool 
usage fubars notwithstanding.  Also in CHANGES it should be described 
specifically as a workaround for the described symptoms in the PR,

"Run cleanups for final request when process exits gracefully."

is something that happens already... e.g.

  prefork: Fix possible crashes on child exit in APR reslist 
  cleanup code.  PR: blah blah

Regards, Joe
