It is probably related to a switch sent to OpenSSL prior to building 
Apache w/ mod_ssl.  I recall looking into it at one point but do not 
recall what I found out.

Try googling the middle line here (don't forget to quote the hyphen so 
google doesn't try to exclude it, that's bit me a few times :).

cd openssl-0.9.7e
./config -fPIC 
make
