I receive the following error when I try to start Apache : './apachectl startssl'

I checked online and there was some information on this on - but they did not go into detail why the error occured and the solution did not work :(

Error Message:


Syntax error on line 237 of /local/bin/apache2.0.52/conf/httpd.conf:[/i]
Cannot load /local/bin/apache2.0.52/modules/mod_auth_digest.so into server: ld.so.1: /local/bin/apache2.0.52/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /local/bin/apache2.0.52/modules/mod_auth_digest.so: symbol __floatdidf: referenced symbol not found
 
It's not a syntax error, you're missing a library, or at least the dynamic linker can't find a library with the correct symbol. Maybe you have the wrong version of a library installed.

I can't find any reference to that symbol in any of my apache stuff on first glance:
Code:
s2(~)$ locate mod_auth_digest
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_auth_digest.so
s2(~)$ ldd /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_auth_digest.so
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x00de8000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x009ca000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00949000)
s2(~)$ nm -o /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 /lib/tls/libc.so.6 /lib/tls/libc.so.6 | grep floatdidf
