I guess I should've been smarter and included some of the Apache config:

...
Listen 209.235.192.67:80

##
##  SSL Support
##
##  When we also provide SSL we have to listen to the
##  standard HTTP port (see above) and to the HTTPS port
##
<IfDefine SSL>
#Listen 209.235.192.67:80
Listen 209.235.192.67:443
#Port 443
</IfDefine>
...

This is my current attempt to get things acting as I would like.  As you
can see by the commented out parts, I've tried a number of other combinations.

There are not other Listen, Port, or BindAddress declarations in the config.
