I had a similar issue, also on NetBSD i386 5.0 with 8 CPUs. I removed
the (default) SSLSessionCache directive as you suggested and the problem
went away.

I wonder if there are locking bugs in SSLSessionCache, but my errors
were repeatable and happened in the same place every single time. The
web server is busy, but I think in many cases was doing nothing else.

I wonder if the SSLSessionCache persists across apache restarts and
became corrupted.
