How reproducible:
MPM worker, mod_auth_kerb authentication with "KrbMethodK5Passwd on". 

ab -n 1000 -c 100 -A username:password http://hostname/

Actual results:
Lot of "Failed requests" in the ab's output. Server error_log is full of errors.

If user try to open real page (with images, styles etc.) in browser, it looks broken - lot of images are missing etc.

Expected results:
No failed requests. No errors in the error_log.

Additional info:
It seems to be fixed in upstream since Oct 2 2008:
