Ugh.  Of course that's it.  What I neglected to mention was that this
occurs when I do either "apachectl restart" or "apachectl graceful".
The reason being, of course, that THOSE commands run (and must pass)
"httpd -t" before it'll send the restart signal to httpd.

Well, this looks like a bug to me.  apachectl needs to know whether
a running httpd is using SSL, and include the -DSSL on the "-t"
checks where appropriate.

Thanks,
