Apache source RPM from Cobalt has openssl already in it, and it is 
patched version 0.9.6.

I tried to rebuild it with recent apache/mod_perl/mod_ssl etc, but 
failed, I guess this spec has to be rewritten completely from the 
scratch, which I am planning to do tomorrow. 

If your server keeps being defaced, then you have a bug somewhere in 
CGI/PHP or even rootkit installed.
If you want me to check your server and fix this issue, please contact 
me off-list - there's much to do with default Cobalt installation, I 
have explored some really bad bugs there :| 

(I am not sure it's apache fault actually. Bad handshake doesn't mean a 
critical error in software - it's just someone with broken client)
