I'm playing with this issue. I've notice that we already have a reliably 
reproducable issue with t/protocol/echo_nonblock.t which calls 
t/protocol/TestProtocol/echo_nonblock.pm. Could you please try the current 
svn (if you go for the snapshot please wait for 6 hours, since I've just 
committed things) [1]

There I now use the code:

   die $@ unless ref $@ eq 'APR::Error'
                     && (APR::Status::is_ECONNABORTED($@) ||
                         APR::Status::is_ECONNRESET($@));

can you also see that die doesn't appear in the error_log of the test 
suite? and if you just do

   die $@;

it logs the error?

t/TEST -v t/protocol/echo_nonblock.t

and check t/logs/error_log
