New Comment:
Well, that means the child is running and this process is the main
process waiting it to terminate. So is that child in endless loop or
what? And if it is, why? That's the real problem here..

My previous comment shows state BEFORE the problem hits. Many "forking"
messages are because of low MAX_REQUEST limit.
When I attached to the process running inside the endless loop (it was
before recompilation with DEBUG_FASTCGI) I got following bt
#0 0xffffe424 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1 0xb712fc6d in __libc_wait (stat_loc=0xbff2d2a4)
at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wait.c:32
#2 0x0845e720 in main (argc=0, argv=Cannot access memory at address

) at

1 child is in endless loop or what? Try attach to such process with gdb
and see what the backtrace says.

I rebuilt php and started up, but as I don't know what exactly causes
the problem we'll have to wait until it happens...
I started it like
% PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN=2 PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS=100 php-cgi -e -b
127.0.0.1:30004 -c /.../php.ini
Process group 2720

Forking, 1 running

pstree -uap shows
`-php-cgi,2720 -e -b 127.0.0.1:30004 -c /.../php.ini
|-php-cgi,13821 -e -b 127.0.0.1:30004 -c /.../php.ini

Try enable fastcgi debugging with DEBUG_FASTCGI when you compile PHP
and provide the log of the failing run.

Description:
------------
fast-cgi php process loops forever during wait()ing for child process
while there's no more child processes.
Actual result:
--------------
in cgi_main.c there's loop:
1631 while (1) {
1632 if (wait(&status) >= 0) {
1633 running--;
1634 break;
1635 } else if (exit_signal) {
1636 break;
1637 }
1638 }
wait returns -1 as strace shows:
wait4(-1, 0xbff2d2a4, 0, NULL) = -1 ECHILD (No child
processes)
and loop never breaks (as apparently exit_signal is set to 0).
