You convinced me, I'm not enough of an Apache expert (yet) to start dealing
with forking/threads/etc.
most of our web stuff does not require the speed, given the level of effort
and the risk (of screwing up).

You're going to have difficulty with implementing a pure db connection
pooling solution simply b/c Apache is a forking webserver -- you can't
pass SQL connection objects between processes. If you're doing only one
thread per process, you can simply implement a connection object as a
Singleton class -- then it will get destroyed as the process gets
recycled. If you're doing multiple threads per process, you're going to
have to be a bit more clever.
I know it's sexy as hell to do connection pooling, but is DB connection
overhead really such a bottleneck for you? Folks who absolutely,
positively need the benefits of a shared-memory, multi-threaded,
thread-safe webserver usually pick something like AOLServer ("AOLServer
-- Heehee! It tickles!" -- sorry, bad joke).
