Description of problem:
after updating openssl with up2date, apache refuses to restart. error message from syslog follows:
error message from /var/log/messages
Jul 30 09:18:02 ll03 httpd: Syntax error on line 273 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Jul 30 09:18:02 ll03 httpd: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libssl.so into server: symbol __sysconf, version GLIBC_2.2 not defined in file 
libc.so.6 with link time reference
Jul 30 09:18:02 ll03 httpd: httpd startup failed

following is lines 272 to 274 from httpd.conf:
<IfDefine HAVE_SSL>
LoadModule ssl_module         modules/libssl.so
</IfDefine>

I don't know if this is the same library version problem as the other openssl problems reported recently.
Can't roll back openssl without rolling back a lot of dependencies.
Apache works when SSL functionality is commented out of httpd.conf

How reproducible:
Didn't try

RH 7.0 hasn't been supported for a long time now.
