Compiling and installing apache from source.
Apache2.3.5-alpha from source
I built apr, apu, and openssl from source. The first two are needed because apache-2.3 requires apr-1.4 and it's only available from snapshots. Without these three, mod_ssl, mod_rewrite, and mod_auth_digest won't work. Openssl is built with the following options:sh config no-threads -fPIC --prefix=/opt/ssl
Then compile apache
./configure --with-ssl=/usr --enable-rewrite --disable-userdir \ --disable-negotiation --enable-vhost-alias --enable-info \ --enable-heartbeat --enable-heartmonitor --enable-lbmethod-heartbeat \ --enable-lbmethod-bybusyness --enable-lbmethod-bytraffic \ --enable-lbmethod-byrequests --enable-static-ab --enable-ssl \ --enable-proxy-ajp --enable-proxy-balancer --enable-proxy-http \ --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy --enable-deflate \ --enable-so --enable-cache --enable-disk-cache --enable-file-cache \ --enable-mods-shared=most --prefix=/usr/local/apache \ --with-apr=/opt/apr --with-apr-util=/opt/apu --with-ssl=/opt/ssl \ --enable-mpms-shared=event,prefork,worker # --enable-privileges Per-virtualhost Unix UserIDs and enhanced security for Solaris # heartbeat is still under development, perhaps I should skip them during compilation
Here's what I have

and you'll need a proper init script

Apache 1.3.x compile
You will be needing the following packages:apache_1.3.14.tar.gz http://www.apache.org
openssl-0.9.6.tar.gz http://www.openssl.org
mod_ssl-2.7.1-1.3.14.tar.gz http://www.modssl.org
mm-1.1.3.tar.gz http://www.engelschall.com/sw/mm
Installing the prerequisites
opensslsh config -fPIC make -j2 make install
mm
./configure --disable-shared make make install
Apache and mod_ssl
Apache./configure --enable-module=so --enable-module=proxy make -j2 make install
mod_ssl
./configure \ --with-apache=../$apache_ver \ --with-ssl=../$ssl_ver \ --with-mm=../$mm_ver \ --prefix=/usr/local/apache \ --enable-shared=ssl \ --enable-module=proxy or ./configure \ --with-apache=../apache_1.3.x \ --expert --with-ssl=/usr
Back to Apache
make -j2 make certificate make install or env CFLAGS="-Wall -DHARD_SERVER_LIMIT=1024" ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/apache \ --enable-module=so \ --enable-shared=max \ --enable-module=ssl
