Maybe if everyone used the RPMs you rolled there wouldn't be any problems,
but it seems that people want to take one RPM from every site, throw them
all together, and hope they work. Then they don't because one package
wasn't compiled with the right options (like EAPI) There just seems to be
too many variables if you want to use RPMs to build Apache/mod_ssl,
especially since a lot of people would also like to use RPMs to install
other Apache modules I'm sure (php, mod_perl). It also seems that a lot
of the people that come to the list reporting Apache/mod_ssl crashes are
using RPMs.

Can't argue with you there.
