Apache 1.3 dies on signal 11

[Michael]

Hi,

I have a system running FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p3 and Apache 1.3.33 with 
mod_ssl 2.8.22. Up until recently everything was working fine. Then as 
of last week, Apache would die unexpectedly, usually around 3:30 AM and 
5:00 AM exiting with signal 11. Also, once it has died I can't start it 
up with mod_ssl. I checked my crontab and newsyslog for any clues what 
might be triggering this but I couldn't find anything that seemed to be 
triggering the Apache processes to exit.

Looking at the archives, other folks suggested that this could be a 
hardware problem. I can't run memtest86 since the machine is located in 
a hosting facilty, but I did run two make buildworlds to see if gcc 
would die. Gcc didn't die.

I can share the output of truss or gdb if anyone can help me figure out 
what is going on. If you have any tips or clues, I would greatly 
appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks in advance,

Michael
