MM is not the same as EAPI.  EAPI is and extension to the Apache API
to allow mod_ssl to work with Apache.  With mod_ssl you can only build
with apxs if you

     1.  already have mod_ssl installed
     2.  if there are no changes to the EAPI in the version of mod_ssl
         you are trying to build.

You will in this at least have to build mod_ssl with Apache sources.
The next time you get a new version of mod_ssl, if there are no
changes to the EAPI then you should be able to build using apxs.
