That's exactly what it should be.. If mod_ssl is compiled as a DSO, it
should not be loaded (at all) unless a -DSSL is given as the command line
option.. If mod_ssl is linked into httpd, then we have no option at all -
which is okay.. But, in anycase, I believe we should be doing something
like,
-> If mod_ssl is DSO,
<IfDefine SSL>
LoadModule ssl_module...
</IfDefine>
-> <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
include conf/ssl.conf
</IfModule>
