Sorry, mod_ssl 2.8.13 introduced two nasty bugs which let the server
crash. This is now fixed with mod_ssl 2.8.14 together with one more
long-standing crash bug related to the SHMHT session cache. Please
upgrade to this latest mod_ssl 2.8 version for Apache 1.3. Thanks.

  Changes with mod_ssl 2.8.14 (18-Mar-2002 to 21-Mar-2003)

   *) Fixed logic in the destruction of a temporary certificate
      structure and this way avoid a crash due to freeing NULL object.

   *) Removed one newly introduced X509_free() call in the context of
      SSL_get_certificate(), because this function does not increment a
      reference count (although SSL_get_peer_certificate() does).

   *) Fixed hash-table based shared memory session cache (shmht)
      implementation by making sure that the underlying hash table
      library does not crash if memory cannot be allocated.
