Description:
------------
A second graceful restart is needed to enable PHP.

1. Start apache with mod_php disabled.
2. Edit httpd.conf and enable the mod_php LoadModule directive.
3. Do a graceful restart of Apache.
4. Note that .php files are downloaded to client rather than being 
properly interpreted.
5. Do a second graceful restart of Apache.
6. Note that .php files are handled properly.

Others have been reporting this for some time, with older versions of 
PHP, for example:

http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/php-dev/3591788




Expected result:
----------------
Other Apache plugins initialize themselves after a single graceful 
restart. It appears the php plugin is relying on its own static 
variables instead of using Apache data structures.
