I've seen that for years. I always assumed it was because the apache2 stop didn't complete before the apache2 start tried to start when I use /etc/init.d/apache2 restart. Instead I do an /etc/init.d/apache2 stop; ps aux | egrep apache until I see all the threads are gone and then a /etc/init.d/apache2 start Todd
