I'm sure there are a lot of unfixed bugs in 1.4.4, some of which
were causing occasional crashes. A quick git log reports this :

 [CRITICAL] cookies: mixing cookies in indirect mode and appsession can crash 
the process
 [BUG] http: dispatch and http_proxy modes were broken for a long time
 [BUG] client: don't add a new session to the list too early

I strongly suggest that you update to a more recent maintenance version,
ideally 1.4.19, though 1.4.18 is known to be rock-solid too. Your config
doesn't seem to be able trigger bugs #1 nor #2 above, but #3 is a likely
candidate.

This is not an acceptable way to run production. It is absolutely essential
that this bug is fixed. Please retry with 1.4.19 (build it from sources),
and if you see the same issue again, please come back here and complain
loudly so that we get this issue definitely resolved.

Willy
