Why not? The dbm library has been found to be unreliable under load.
Please use the mm library and enable the shm cache.
> PERL 5.6.0 is the installed version (confirmed)
Good. (Although I'm still using Perl 5.004 or Perl 5.005 on all my
machines)

Also a good idea.

Are you sure you're running mod_ssl? mod_ssl creates a binary called httpd,
NOT httpsd. Apache-SSL does create a binary called httpsd, have you
installed that somehow?
Can you post your exact instructions you used to build/install mod_ssl?
Here's how I would do it (Using tcsh for my shell):
> tar zxvf mm-1.1.3.tar.gz
> cd mm-1.1.3
> ./configure --disable-shared
> make && make test
> cd ..
> tar zxvf openssl-0.9.6.tar.gz
> cd openssl-0.9.6
> ./configure
> make && make test && make install
> cd ..
> tar zxvf mod_ssl-2.7.1-1.3.14.tar.gz
> tar zxvf apache_1.3.14.tar.gz
> cd mod_ssl-2.7.1-1.3.14
> ./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.14
> cd ..
> cd apache_1.3.14
> setenv SSL_BASE ../openssl-0.9.6
> setenv EAPI_MM ../mm-1.1.3
> ./configure --enable-module=ssl --enable-module=most \
--enable-shared=max --enable-rule=SSL_EXPERIMENTAL
> make
> make certificate TYPE=dummy
> make install
> /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl startssl
