David,

Apple's MySQL included with Mac OS X Server 10.5 does not have SSL  
support compiled in:
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%ssl%';
+---------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------+
| have_openssl  | NO    |
| have_ssl      | NO    |
| ssl_ca        |       |
| ssl_capath    |       |
| ssl_cert      |       |
| ssl_cipher    |       |
| ssl_key       |       |
+---------------+-------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

You will need to replace Apple's version with a custom compiled  
version, as it appears the binary provided by MySQL doesn't support  
SSL either.

Regards,
Andrew
