Thanks Tomas, interesting post... I have tested various builds against
the client renegotiation vulnerability and get the following results:

httpd-2.2.14 (unpatched) with openssl-0.9.8l:
        connection "hangs", both sides reading connection

httpd-2.2.14 (with CVE-2009-3555-2.2.patch) with openssl-0.9.8l:
        connection "hangs", both sides reading connection

httpd-2.2.14 (with CVE-2009-3555-2.2.patch) with openssl-0.9.8k:
        connection dropped by server with:
        25217:error:1409E0E5:SSL routines:SSL3_WRITE_BYTES:ssl handshake
failure:s3_pkt.c:534:

I don't want to risk connections getting hung up, so my conclusion is
that I should deploy the patched version of mod_ssl with 0.9.8k. Or is a
0.9.8m in the offing?

Rgds,
Owen Boyle
