Did they change what was proposed here? The wording on this page now 
reads:

"Verify every client, agent, and integration that communicates with 
DigiCert OCSP and CRL services uses HTTP/1.0 with a proper Host header 
or HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/1.2."

... which the mod_ssl client does do, so we should be fine.
