I am able to reproduce this on a current apache (2.0.54-r12), however this isn't
something that is specific to Gentoo. I did some research, and it looks like
there are many issues with how SSL is implemented in ab.

The source even lists the SSL support as "_experimental/rudimentary_ SSL support"

Resolving UPSTREAM.
