Well i'm not shure.

Hmm, not 100% fine. I added the -fPIC and recompiled the whole stuff.
Now, when mod_ssl is the only DSO-module apart from apache's
"standard"-modules, it works. But when i add more DSO's (mod_perl,
PHP3 or mod_jserv) it still segfaults like before. Tomorrow, i will
rebuild it with -g and run it under gdb.
System is Linux 2.0.36, apache-config like in my last mail.
Ciao
