[Bug 134274] Re: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT causes random HTTP connection failures in load-balanced web-server farms

[TJ]

Unfortunately upstream cannot agree on what precisely the standards
require in relation to TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT, thus this issue slips through
the cracks and doesn't affect enough installations to create any real
drive.

As can be seem from my investigations it is an obscure bug which is very
hard to catch and probably goes unseen in most circumstances.

My preferred solution would be a prominent addition to the Debian/Ubuntu
READMEs for apache with a reference to this bug with advice to use

AcceptFilter http none

when operating in a load-balancing configuration.
