Just add to /etc/make.conf:
    APACHE_PORT?= ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache13-modssl

Then start the install with either the mod_perl or mod_php4 ports, they will
then automatically depend on the apache13-modssl port, and install it if it
is not available.

NOTE: You'll have to remove this line, if you want to use the www/apache2
port.
