Description:
------------
php fastcgi parent process calls sapi_startup but it doesn't call
php_module_shutdown before exiting. The result of this is :
1) php behavior is different when running inside apache and inside fastcgi.
   When running inside apache, parent apache process calls php_module_shutdown.
2) Since php fastcgi parent doesn't call php_module_shutodown, it doesn't give
   modules like apc to do proper cleanup chance. Note that apc creates semaphores
   and it needs to know if parent process is shutting down to cleanup semaphores.
   Here is the APC  bug link : http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=5280

Suggested fix :
   Php fastcgi parent process install signals and inside signal handler it calls
exit. I think it is not wise to call complicated stuff like php_module_shutdown
inside signal handler so in my suggested fix, I set the variable exitsignal to 1.
When parent will come out of wait call, it should first invoke cleanup functions
and then call exit.
