How about this part of the INSTALL file in the mod_ssl distribution?

| --with-ssleay=/path/to/ssleay \ ALL
| --with-rsaref=/path/to/rsaref US
| $ make ALL
| $ make install ALL
| $ make distclean ALL
|

| --with-apxs).
But please read it carefully: The generated libssl.so doesn't work with a
plain Apache. Your Apache has to already contain the Extended API.
