I don't think your disabling telnet has anything to do with Interchange's 
"make test" failing. Most of us haven't run telnetd on our servers for 10+ 
years, and the tests work fine.

What else did you change around the same time? Did you set up any firewall 
rules? Change or enable SELinux or AppArmor? Etc.

Nope. It's a "special configuration", sure, in the sense that anything you 
do in Apache is special. But it's common to adjust the SSL* settings per 
SSL virtual host as the above does.
