I do not ask for it ABSOLUTELY, I just said IT WOULD BE NICE IF...
Victor and I try to maintain RPM distributions of Apache+EAPI and mod_ssl as

includes EAPI without including cryptographic software (or without mod_ssl).
Peoples that want to get mod_ssl can get it as a separate packages (in fact two
separate packages: binary and source)
