Apache2 seg faults

Hi everybody.
Need help with Apache2 seg fault.
I'm totally in my blinds on this one. It seems like the problem occurs 
when Apache is trying to
do a graceful restart.
Tried to do some "googling" and searching the mail archives, but found 
nothing useful.
Found an answer from Matthew Seaman to a similar problem, but didn't 
understand much about it.

odin# uname -a
FreeBSD odin.swedehost.com 4.10-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE-p3 #0: 
Fri Nov  5 16:04:49 CET 2004     
root at odin.swedehost.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ODIN  i386

This is what the httpd-error.log has to say about it :
[Mon Nov 08 19:00:00 2004] [notice] Graceful restart requested, doing 
restart
[Mon Nov 08 19:00:02 2004] [notice] seg fault or similar nasty error 
detected in the parent process
[Mon Nov 08 19:01:52 2004] [warn] pid file /var/run/httpd.pid 
overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?
[Mon Nov 08 19:01:52 2004] [notice] Apache/2.0.52 (FreeBSD) PHP/4.3.9 
mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7d configured -- resuming normal operations

And then nothing happening. I have to manually restart the server by 
issuing the following :
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl startssl

Any and all help preciated.

Best regards
Hasse Hansson.
