Actually, I think it'd be more user friendly to make the parameter
still exist and be a no-op (maybe show the value NULL?) on non-SSL
enabled builds. Same goes for all other parameters that depend on a
specific compile flag. That would make life easier on automated tools
*and* on people sitting down at a new installation.

Thoughts?
