OK, maybe a little light here.

I got it to work, sort of by accident (running now at
https://shib.cac.washington.edu/secure/ for your amusement), by setting up
a /usr/local/lib/apache directory for modules, instead of the default
/usr/local/apache which has a whole pile of modules in it, and putting
only a few modules in it (SSL, etc).  So the httpd processes at that point
looked like:

apache   13753  0.1  1.5 13132 7936 ?        S    00:49   0:00
  /usr/sbin/httpd -DHAVE_SSL -DHAVE_CGI

since the /etc/init.d/httpd script does this munging to define HAVE_* for
all the modules.

By moving more modules about I was able to figure out that the sole
offending module is:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      1561021 Apr 15  2002 libphp4.so*

That is, if that module is in the set of loaded modules, child httpds
segfault, but if it's not, then all is fine.

I noticed there's an updated libphp for RH7.3 (php-4.1.2-7.3.6), so I
installed that, but it didn't make any difference.

Now I suppose I should mention that shib.cac.washington.edu is a
dual-processor box, spose that could be a factor.

Anyway,
