I'll take another look, but I don't recall seeing anything that looked
out of the ordinary.  I did a tcpdump while performing a commit and
that looked okay, too, I guess.  I have no idea what a lot of it
means, but here's the summary:

username [~]$ sudo /usr/sbin/tcpdump host balt-002494 and port 80 >>
~/tcpdump.out
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
44502 packets captured
89010 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel

A tail on the output doesn't show anything that looks out of the
ordinary - at least not to a layman.  Just in case, though, I've
pasted it below:

Does it mean anything to you?

Apache logs every request it receives.  So regardless of whether the
commit transaction fails or not, there should be stuff in the apache
access_log.  If there is not, it indicates that either apache didn't
receive the request at all, or that the apache process serving the
request crashed before it could do the logging.  In the latter case,
you would usually see a segmentation fault signalled in the error log.
