Yes, this is what I was looking at doing and very similar to how I was going to 
do it.  Is there API support for this?  E.g., to set from mod_ssl?  I don't see 
anything, so I'm just reaching in through ctx->param to set it, but if there's 
a better/more proper way, I'd prefer to do it that way.

Also, is this targetted for 1.0.2, I guess? and, would it be possible to 
back-port it to the 0.9.8 branch?  I'd love to have, e,g,, RHEL5 pick it up 
natively.  

The patch should be attached... 


Thanks,
Kevin
