Package: ruby-rack
Version: 1.4.1-2.1+deb7u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading ruby-rack package from 1.4.1-2.1 to 1.4.1-2.1+deb7u1,
high CPU usage is observed with the two apache "start" processes.
Between them they are trying to use 100% CPU forever.

This problem goes away when ruby-rack package is downgraded to 1.4.1-2.1
again.

The app being run here is puppet master, but the only package being
changfed is ruby-rack.

An strace of the apache processes showed them to be just waiting on a
read of fd #89 (a pipe), but I expect they are multi-threaded so this
was not useful.

Apache MPM in use is prefork, and phusion passenger
