I've tested the patch against 2.4.31 as provided in STATUS and confirmed it 
fixes the issue. Thanks for the very fast turnaround.

I'd like to ask a followup question... how do we catch this in the test suite? 
With this (100% failure), ab still returns a 0 exit code. It *does* at least 
give the error message to STDERR. Perhaps we should add to the test suite that 
`ab -q` completed against the http and https vshosts with no lines printed to 
STDERR and has a 0 exit code?
