You have to consider that all of the Apache ports, like
mod_php and all that, during installation they all want to
modify httpd.conf.  So, you can hardly have apache-ssl
installed before you have to softlink httpd.conf to
httpsd.conf

Consider that with apache-ssl you can run both ssl and
non-ssl websites under apache-ssl, there is really not
much incentive to run a non-ssl and an ssl Apache daemon
on the same box.  I'd say that the mistake is the port
setting up a httpsd.conf file in the first place, not that
the binary doesen't use it.
