Well, er, installing apache-perl isn't quite the same as installing
apache + libapache-mod-perl; as you point out the former is compiled
in while the latter links dynamically.  Likewise, apache-ssl and
apache + libapache-mod-ssl are not the same in that the SSL stuff is
compiled in when you run apache-ssl.  The apache issue is further
complicated in that apache-ssl and libapache-mod-ssl _are not the same
code_ ... they are two means to an end.  See
http://www.apache-ssl.org/#mod_ssl for an explanation.

For most people it somes down to personal preference.  Personally, I
like to install apache + whatever libapache-mod-* packages I
want/need.  Others like the compiled in version.
