[mod_python] Apache reload problem

I have heard of others beside me having the same problem (all using Debian), 
so I thought this problem was very common. At least I believed that an 
'official' patch was available.

I will live with my own patch - which I don't consider permanent - until 
things solve themselves with a new release or combination of 
Apache/Python/mod_python.

If anybody finds a better patch or solution I'll be happy hearing about it.
Thanks in advance.
