Okay. At least that makes configuration straightforward.

I think APR *must* be linked against OpenSSL... that is, I don't think
you can link it against... er, some other SSL library (I don't know
any off-hand that exist).

Yes, builtin does == software OpenSSL, unless you have compiled
OpenSSL is some way to change the default engine to something else.

Note that this does not change anything about the rest of your JVM --
only how the Tomcat Connector uses APR and SSL directly. Also note
that on most Linux systems, the JRE is set up to use /dev/urandom as well.
