While testing our new php application for almost a week now on amd64 everything went well. Last night I did an update of the system, and this morning I receive e-mail the application stopped working before saving occurs. It seems session_start() works for a new session, and does some edits but eventually stops. Reviewing the emerge log since the failure, curl is high on my 'bad feelings' list. Now rebuilding php/apache2 in order to see if something happens. (yes I know I should not put ~x86 on a amd64...)

It seems the session is waiting for the database, and that seems to be locked per apache instance. Probably a strange bug between chair and keyboard.
