This definitely gets the award for least useful error message of the month.

Not only should it just say "can't do that on win32," which is after all
the bottom line, it was spitting out openssl error messages which were
totally useless.  Eg:

[30/May/2002 17:31:17 05760] [error] Init: PassPhraseDialog BuiltIn not
supported in server private key from file
F:/Apache/Apache2/conf/ssl/secure.key (OpenSSL library error follows)
[30/May/2002 17:31:17 05760] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D084069:asn1
encoding routines:d2i_ASN1_SET:bad tag
[30/May/2002 17:31:17 05760] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09D082:asn1
encoding routines:d2i_RSAPrivateKey:parsing
[30/May/2002 17:31:17 05760] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09B00D:asn1
encoding routines:d2i_PrivateKey:ASN1 lib

Which is essentially saying "OpenSSL couldn't read your private key because
it was encrypted, and we can't get the passphrase the way you asked us to
on this platform."
