I'm on Debian.

Meanwhile, I managed to get an strace by reducing the number of forks
that Apache makes and attaching an strace to them all. See the
attachment (I hope your mailinglist accepts attachments). At the end of
this trace nothing happens anymore but the process still uses 100% CPU.

I'll get a GDB backtrace next.
