Doc Text:
When using the prefork Multi-Processing Module (MPM), children processes with persistent connections (that is, with the "KeepAlive" directive set to "On") kept processing new requests even when a graceful restart had been issued. This update applies a patch that corrects this error, and children processes with the persistent connections no longer process new requests when a graceful restart is requested.
