Yes, two days ago I worked on the compat code myself for 2.1.1 and found out
that the simple comparisons in 2.1.0 are really too problematic. Your
"SSLRequireSSL" problem is one result of his fact. I've now replaced this with
more accurate comparisons so such "half-matchings" are avoided. Nevertheless
thanks for the feedback. It will be fixed in 2.1.1 which comes out the next
days. In the meantime when you don't need the compat code you can just build
mod_ssl without it by using --disable-rule=SSL_COMPAT, of course.
