What may be happening (this happened to me this week) is that there is a
path mismatch somewhere else.  It may be creating the mutex file properly,
but there is a semaphore file being used for shared memory that isn't
being created properly and mod_ssl can't allocate the shared memory.  I
banged my head on the desktop for an hour trying to figure this out and
found out my semaphore wasn't being created because I had a path set
wrong.  Be very careful about the paths and make sure they exist beacuse
they don't get created automatically by Apache.
