I am mighty ignorant about Apache, but I'll venture a bet that the "Out
of memory!" message is a red herring. It could easily be coming from
some clueless bit of code that prints that in response to *any* failure.
The thing that looks real to me is the report that a child process died
with a SEGV signal. You should go look for the resulting corefile and
see if you can get a backtrace from it. For that matter, do you even
know what program the child process was running?
