They (EXPORT56 and EXP56) should work the same when used in mod_ssl, but
when using openssl on the command line only EXPORT56 works so that's what
I use in my configuration files.  :-)  I think that using EXPORT56 in the
default configuration files and in the Manual would clear up these
questions, though.
