mod_fcgid creates 1 more process then allowed

I have configure with a limit of 16 processes but have 17 running and
logs claiming 16 running.

Barry

httpd.conf fcgid config lines:

FcgidCmdOptions /usr/local/onelan/html/dsmauthorizer.fcgi MaxProcesses
16 IOTimeout 200
FcgidCmdOptions /usr/local/onelan/html/dsm.fcgi MaxProcesses
16 IOTimeout 200
FcgidCmdOptions /usr/local/onelan/html/dsmxml.fcgi MaxProcesses
16 IOTimeout 200

error_log has these messages repeating:

/usr/local/onelan/html/dsmxml.fcgi processes (current:16, max:16), skip

You should probably open a bug report for this. That's not to say
that others haven't started thinking about it, but I haven't seen any
activity.

I wonder if a process is stuck in the error list or somewhere else...
I think that it would be very cool to have a status handler to get the
PM to report the contents of the several lists, and format
appropriately ;)
