+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #677698 +++

Description of problem:

with the release of 1.0.8 there is no lock mechanism to serialise httpd process access to the nss_pcache process. This can result in multiple requests being read as a single request by nss_pcache, a single result returned and callers either getting FAIL result or erroring out.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.0.8-3
