Steve, thanks for cleaning and applying my patch.  A quick question, if I 
may...

Would it be possible to make OCSP Stapling enabled by default (when the server 
certificate contains an OCSP Responder URL in the AIA extension) instead of 
disabled by default?
(Perhaps "SSLUseStapling" could be replaced by "SSLDisableStapling")

I just wonder how many webmasters would bother to add "SSLUseStapling on" to 
their config files, even though OCSP Stapling benefits all parties.

I understand that Microsoft IIS 7.x enables OCSP Stapling by default.
