ya sorry, was just coming back to follow up with that... after I posted that, I was wondering why in the hell I was compiling with SSI module... it's actually WITHOUT SSI. :)

This is back on 1.3.10 after I rolled it back after the issues:

nginx version: nginx/1.3.10
built by gcc 4.5.1 20101208 [gcc-4_5-branch revision 167585] (SUSE Linux)
TLS SNI support enabled
configure arguments: --prefix=/etc/nginx --sbin-path=/usr/sbin/nginx --pid-path=/var/run/nginx.pid --error-log-path=/usr/log/ngnix/error.log --http-log-path=/usr/log/ngnix/access.log --with-openssl=/home/software_source/openssl-1.0.1c --with-cc-opt='-I /usr/local/ssl/include' --with-ld-opt='-L /usr/local/ssl/lib' --without-http_proxy_module --without-http_ssi_module --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_stub_status_module

The only difference with the compile options when I did it for 1.3.11 was I added "--with-http_spdy_module" to the end since it needs it for 1.3.11+
