in reply to (OT?) mod_perl crypt() + glibc 2.2.15 bug

What do you mean "erratically"? What do the Perl tests for crypt say when you run them verbosely? Are you running into an issue where all of the mod_perl children share the same srand seed?

    Nah, I'm far too lazy/busy to spend time hammering out the exact issue. I found a post here that mentioned it. I also found another post somewhere saying it had come up as a bug on a glibc mailing list and was being/had been dealt with (unfortunately, I can't find that page now).

    I was under the impression it was glibc, but now I can't find the original thread, I'm not so sure.

    Either way, the fix works and is a quick solution for anyone else who's had to deal with the same issue quickly.
