Nope - I just simulated that on the test server, and it doesn't hang
the pages... it just returns nothing.

The behaviour we are getting on the live server is that any page using
shell_exec hangs the page - the browser just sits with the sand timer
indefinitely...

I'm still waiting for somebody to grab the apache logs for me -
hopefully they will explain what is going on.

If anybody else has any ideas I'd love to know.
