thanks. my fault.

mixed the imapct part with ...

: Note that any statically linked applications that are not part of the
: base system (i.e. from the Ports Collection or other 3rd-party sources)
: must be recompiled.

while mod_ssl comes form ports and is not part of the base system it
still uses (as you said) dynamic linking. So replacing the libs is
enough.

Thanks and happy weekend.
