I may have missed something here but the OCSP stapling code doesn't appear to be
in trunk. The patch in:

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43822

doesn't apply cleanly any more, though the changes needed to get it working are
fairly trivial. I'm in the process of including an updated patch.

Nitpick: along the way I noticed the ocsp code in ssl_util_ocsp.c was updated to
support a configurable timeout (which was in the original stapling patch) but
the comment:

        /* Inherit the default I/O timeout. */

has been retained which isn't true any more.

Steve.
