I alread posted a bug report about this.  It's PR # 200 @
http://www.modssl.org/support/bugdb, if anyone wants to look at it.

Ralf is apparently rather busy now finishing his degree.  If anyone has more
info about this, I guess I'd be interested in finding out more.  It's
probably a pretty simple fix (it seems to be just an incorrect #define in
mod_ssl.h).

Brian, are you using Linux?  Which version?  What libc?  What distro?  What
version of modsssl?
