This is what may be happening: an earlier version of OpenSSL had a
function called sk_X509_NAME_value, later versions have a macro instead.
So somehow the old definition is being picked up when OpenSSL and/or
mod_ssl is being compiled.
I suspect that you may have some headers for an older version of OpenSSL
on your system somewhere and those are being seen instead of the newer
OpenSSL 0.9.6b ones. Do a search on your system for some of the header
names (x509.h for example) and remove any old versions.
