Should be fine.

Apache can be built with either gcc or Sun Workshop.

The OpenSSL build system default to generating static archives, which are linked into the calling program and don't show up on ldd.  As others have pointed out, you can force OpenSSL to build shared libraries by passing the keyword 'shared' to ./config.   You might also check whether OpenSSL built with gcc or with Sun CC... it should not matter either way: a binary is a binary.  The only thing a gcc binary does once built is require some gcc glue in order to run.  

Reviewing the output of Apache ./configure should give you an idea of which OpenSSL toolkit it finds.  The advantage of using static archives (.a libraries as opposed to .so) is that you are never in doubt of which OpenSSL toolkit is in use by httpd.  

Regarding SSLCACertificateFile: this directive is used to point to the CA Certificate used to challenge the client for a client-side certificate.  No luck involved here: it's simply a different purpose than SSLCertificateChainFile which points to the intermediary certificate chain presented by the server to allow the client to connect the server certificate to its root certificate database.  

Note: not having this chain in place is not the cause of your problem.  It will just fail the verification.  

Your build looks fundamentally sound.  Try connecting to your aberrant server with openssl s_client -connect aberrantserver:443 -debug and paste us the output.  It will give you more to work with than the browsers.

Are you sure that you are picking up the OpenSSL version and not Sun's default installed version in /lib ?  Can you post your build command?  Personally, I like dynamic linking, so that you can upgrade to a new OpenSSL, without having to redo everything that uses it.
