after updating to www-servers/apache-2.2.21-r1 apache gives lots of aborts. Backtrace points to mod_wsgi as the culprit:

Did you revdep-rebuild or otherwise rebuild mod_wsgi after emerging new apache2?

Yes. revdep-rebuild did not try to rebuild mod_wsgi but I also reemerged it but the problem persisted.
Here's apache options as well in case it might be some interaction with other modules:
APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D STATUS -D LANGUAGE -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D CGI -D PHP   5 -D PYTHON -D PERL -D SECURITY -D WSGI"

I think it's specific for your system, as it has been working fine on mine.

It is still a bug. I think got this too. Please reopen.

I've opened an upstream bug at http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/issues/detail?id=258, please participate there.

The upstream bug has details on issues that can cause this, it still doesn't appear to be a Gentoo bug.
