Our mod_perl code is using GNU DBM, not Berkely DB. 

I've tested building libphp5.so from the php.net source for php-5.3.3 and the problem still persists with my own compiled library.  

I've also tried to get a backtrace after the tie() failure to see if that will provide more info but I'm not very familiar with gdb: 

lhrivid:/opt/src/php-source/php-5.3.3/libs# ps -ef|grep apache

Is there a bug open against libapr that this issue might be related to?
