Confirmed ... an "apache" test with no "http" tests for the same host

The attached patch fixes it, and I'll include this in the next release
(real soon now - promise!)
The patch got rid of the purple http column.  Thanks for providing it.

I've got a problem now with apache perf monitoring, and before I go and 
blame the patch for doing this, I'd like to make sure I've checked out 
everything on my end.
It's OK to blame the patch, 'cause re-reading it now I think it is broken.
Thanks for testing - I'll have a second look at it later tonight.
How can I watch the hobbitd channel and see what errors or data is 
coming in from teh apache test?
Login as the hobbit user, then run

   ~/server/bin/bbcmd hobbitd_channel --channel=data cat

The "apache" test is sent in a "data" message, hence the
"--channel=data". This dumps all data messages - including vmstat,
netstat and such - but you should be able to recognize the apache one.
However, I think my patch just stopped sending it ...
