ssh2 doesn't close connections under apache

hello, first of all i'd like to express my gratitude for your work on these libraries. I have a bit of a problem with ssh2. I notice after running some php scripts that connect, execute a few statements and then finish, that there are lingering proccesses on the remote host a linux box FC2, where a ps ax looks like 7102 ? S 0:00 sshd: watchdog [priv] 7104 ? S 0:00 sshd: watchdog@notty Upon closer inspection i find that this only happens when using libphp4 regardless of whether i dl load or preload using php.ini extension=ssh2. When running from the command line this does not happen at all. When using apache i have found no way around it. I've tried ssh2_exec($con, 'exit'), unset($con) and exit. There seems to be no hook for cleanup like there is when when the command line php proccess ends. And yes restarting apache frees the connections. Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong? Any help on this would be appreciated. mario;> Micro$oft is nice, as long as it's not required.
