+1 here.  After reading the RFC I realize that I may have hit this issue 
recently: a mapserver mapfile with over 50+ WMS layers would crash 
mapserv on Windows consistently, yet had no problems on unix ever.  I 
never could narrow it down to one problem layer, but it seemed to only 
occur when I had many WMS layers.  Maybe this rfc is related, not sure. 
  Anyway thanks for this addition.
