I find this interesting, because I don't have any problems building and
running the latest apache/mod_ssl/openssl on my RedHat 6.2 systems.
Here's the exact steps I take to build:
tar zxf mm-1.1.3.tar.gz
cd mm-1.1.3 && ./configure --disable-shared && make && make test
cd ..
tar zxf openssl-0.9.6b.tar.gz
cd openssl-0.9.6b && ./configure && make && make test
cd ..
tar zxf mod_ssl-2.8.4-1.3.20.tar.gz
tar zxf apache_1.3.20.tar.gz
cd mod_ssl-2.8.4-1.3.20 && ./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.20
cd ..
cd apache_1.3.20 && ./configure --enable-module=most --enable-shared=max
make && make install
<edit and tweak /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf as necessary>
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
I've never had a problem doing this on various RedHat and SGI IRIX machines.
