Restarting the helpers synchronously kills all in-progress NTLM
authentication requests.
NTLM *NEEDS* asynchronous helper restarts. How this is done is
irrelevant, it _must_ have it.

Its not necesarily aborted requests. Theres a race somewhere related to
the comm_close_handler stuff AFAICT (Not in that code, but in the
assocation of the user stuct to the conenction - I think). It took a
printf bomb to find that, but oh well.
Also worth noting, if NTLM leaked helpers on every aborted request, it
wouldn't hit 5.5 Million requests before 10 got leaked - thats 1 leak
every 550,000 requests.
