libcrypt has nothing to do with libcrypto/libssl of openssl. They can be
loaded in parallel. Because crypt was implemented in triple DES 156 bit,
proven to convey only 112 bits of encryption strength, that cipher is no
longer a part of openssl. But the system library for crypt'ed passwords
remains.

  HHmm... okay.  The issue I'm having is that crypt() no longer seems to
exist in openssl 1.1.0, which is what apr_util is testing for, and when it
cannot find it in 1.1.0 it decides to use the 1.0.0 version
of the system libs....so apr-util and httpd are built with 1.0.0 and
mod_ssl with 1.1.0

  Guess I will try to contact some of the sites providing httpd 2.4.x
binaries with 1.1.0 support and ask about how they are handling apr-util.

Thanks,
Matt
