[mod_python] Mod_Python 3 / Apache 2 / RedHat 7.3 / Python 2.2 = Seg fault :(

I take it you are having a similar problem?

I'm not able to get gdb to run on apache2; it runs but I cannot connect
to it.  I'm not really familiar with gdb, so I'm not sure what I have to
do to get it to run.

I'm trying out compiling mod_python with different arguments to see if
anything fixes it.  It might also be python 2.2, I need to upgrade to
2.2.1 and see where that leads.

OK, good.  Now once you get to that point, type 

  gdb> backtrace full

to get some info on where the call to strlen() that caused trouble
came from.
