[fpc-devel] Lazarus Apache module crashes during concurrent requests

[ABorka]

Hi Jonas,

This seems to work on Windows (and solves the problem), but on Linux 
WaitForThreadTerminate waits forever.

WaitForThreadTerminate(BeginThread(@__dummythread), 300);

apache just waits and doesn't start until I stop the apache loading with 
ctrl+c, as if it is in an infinite loop and waiting.

Any thoughts?
