Description
Cloning a repository on this server sometimes fails, with an error that says simply:
abort: error: ''
The cause appears to be the authentication module, with the error log reporting
DBD::Pg::db FETCH failed: handle 2 is owned by thread 7f957b55e6a0 not current thread 7f957c1e4c00 (handles can't be shared between threads and your driver may need a CLONE method added), <DATA> line 556.
from the access handler.
Repeating the clone operation will often work. I haven't yet seen this with any other hg commands, though it doesn't appear from the error that the command should make any difference.

I have switched from DBI to Apache::DBI via "PerlModule Apache::DBI" in mods-available/perl.conf.
I tried this before, but got a 500 on every request -- turns out this is a bug in Apache::DBI 1.0.7, fixed in 1.0.8 but not yet available via apt. Patching Apache/DBI.pm as per http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=36346 (place eval{} around "$r = Apache2::RequestUtil->request;") seems to have fixed that.
Monitoring the situation...
