As Luca said, the default semaphore mechanism (i.e. if not changed by
./configure) used by httpd is "sysvsem", and it indeed leaks a
descriptor when not exiting properly (or from debug mode).
The easier way to use another mechanism is the Mutex directive, for instance:
Mutex pthread default
defined globally will use a mechanism which does not have this issue.
If you really want to stay with "sysvsem" mechanism, the following
patch will do it for the debug mode too:

This can't work, the mutex will be used later on so it will crash.
Thus this change is incomplete, and the complete one is probably more
complex than the changes proposed above.

I don't think suppressing this mutex (or any other process/global
mutex which your configuration may need, soon or later...) is wise.
You should go with avoiding the leak (as proposed above).
