If you still get this problem, please report it through bugzilla.

You don't get the same behavior. If you do that APR_JUST_WAIT,
mod-mono-server is not finished properly (or finished at all). The code
for unix make it possible to receive Application_End events (with
certain restrictions on the MPM model).

That's ok. It's much better than not working on windows at all :-).
