well... accoring to strace, it stops when trying to read from
/dev/random.

open("/usr/lib/apache2/logs/access_log", O_WRONLY|O_APPEND|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = 8
open("/var/log/http.fifo", O_WRONLY|O_APPEND|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = 9
gettimeofday({1132737091, 140646}, NULL) = 0
write(7, "[Wed Nov 23 10:11:31 2005] [noti"..., 92) = 92
open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY)           = 10
read(10, 

looks like my /dev/random don't give me anything, as "dd if=/dev/random
of=random.txt count=5" freezes too.

gotta sort this out.
