Since mod_ssl cannot load because of missing or non-existant config directives, that is surely a bug. > Especially with all the linkages, if mod_ssl is an so, you have the massive > overhead of resolving all the libssl/libeay sorts of symbols just to load > a module that's never used. That is brokenness. I can agree with this (it takes noticably long to start the server with mod_ssl loaded). > +1 on Madhu's solution. Given that I still disagree with the existance of -DSSL in the first place, as long as it does exist I am also +1 on the patch. I've also applied and tested this patch, but I'll wait for another +1 or some other comments before committing. -aaron
