Updated mod_fcgid for httpd 2.4 in Rawhide
Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.61 in F-17 and Rawhide:
Call CTX_set_session_id_context so that server's session caching works with client certificates too (CPAN RT#76053)
Local Packages
Updated fetchyahoo to 2.14.6:
Case-insensitive check for text/plain
Check for existence of content-type to prevent uninitialized variable error
Updated mod_fastcgi for httpd 2.4 in Rawhide; this turned out to be non-trivial as the last upstream release (2.4.6) fails to compile:

However, the changes looked sane so I incorporated them, though it didn't fix the compile problem with httpd 2.4. I then found some patches from Byte Internet on GitHub, which did fix the build
