Err... you mean ssl_expr_scan.c, I think. I see no reference to stdin
in ssl_engine_config.

mod_ssl doesn't read from stdin. The code is generated by Flex and only
used if the application doesn't provide a yyinput() function. But such
a function _IS_ provided by mod_ssl, so the scanner never uses stdin to
read the input data.
