The live time of the mobj->pool pool should be longer then that of the r->pool pool (which should be ensured by the refcount stuff, which would be broken otherwise). Of course not doing a deep_table_copy can cause trouble afterwards with APR_POOL_DEBUG set as mobj->pool does not seem to be an ancestor of r->pool. Is this the reason for this copy operation?
