I did not try this to build a "default" OpenCA. Why are there a workaround in 
the first place?

I use this patch to never touch any of the modules:

--- src/Makefile        2004-04-19 13:08:25.167875312 +0200
+++ src/Makefile.oden   2004-04-19 13:13:47.415886168 +0200
@@ -15,7 +15,6 @@

 SUBDIRS = \
        $(COMMON_DIR)   \
-       $(MODULE_DIR)   \
        $(OPENCA_SV)    \
        $(SCRIPT_DIR)   \
        $(WEB_DIR)      \


IMHO the whole src/modules directory should be removed from the OpenCA tar 
ball. The software suite should be as modular as possible. If there's a 
problem with for example the "OpenCA-Tools" perl module, one could easily 
just update that specific package (thinking RPM packages here...).
