I'm in the Fixup phase.

Hmm.

No Win32 port available for that, I guess.
(We work mostly (whenever we can get away with it, essentially) on Linux servers, but try
to keep our solutions portable to Windows too, since we occasionally have clients that
insist on it.)

Building it on Windows from the tar.gz doesn't seem to work either, as it appears to 
require gcc (and probably a lot of other things not available on my XP laptop).

However, the real target system this time is Linux, and it's kind of one-of-a-kind for
now, so let's try :

root@arthur:~# apt-cache search apache2 | grep SSL
libapache2-mod-log-sql-ssl - Use SQL to store/write your apache queries logs - SSL extension
libapache2-mod-gnutls - Apache module for SSL and TLS encryption with GnuTLS

Hmm, no handy Debian package.  So, the hard way :

Ok, I'm a bit rusty about building from CPAN.

This is Linux Debian :

root@arthur:~# uname -a
Linux arthur 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Mon Mar 26 05:20:33 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux

Perl is :
root@arthur:~# perl -vv

This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi
(with 56 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

Apache httpd is :
[Mon Nov 12 15:01:23 2012] [notice] Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) DAV/2 SVN/1.6.12 mod_jk/1.2.30
PHP/5.3.3-7+squeeze8 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o
mod_apreq2-20090110/2.7.1 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.1 configured -- resuming normal operations

But I do not find an "apxs" anywhere.
Do I need to install some "dev" package to get it ?

root@arthur:~# apt-cache search apache2 | grep dev
apache2-prefork-dev - Apache development headers - non-threaded MPM
apache2-threaded-dev - Apache development headers - threaded MPM
libapache2-mod-perl2-dev - Integration of perl with the Apache2 web server - development files
