OpenSSL 1.0.1 supports NPN out of the box.

AFAIK OpenSSL does not support NPN out of the box either and obe would have to apply patches to the openssl-src in order to get NPN support. In OpenSSL 1.0.2 ALPN support has been added, though.

I know it is easy to say and probably takes a lot of effort to implement, but wouldn't it be better to implement ALPN into httpd?

I have not looked at the patches or ALPN in detail, but I think the
important question is how hard it would be to change this for (or add) ALPN
support. If Chrome is planning to remove NPN support, it does not seem very
useful to add the feature to HTTPD.

I don't think https://www.imperialviolet.org/2013/03/20/alpn.html is enough reason not to backport, but I'll mention it.

Tend to agree with the other comments, NPN by itself will be
deprecated quickly, ALPN is the future.  I'd vote for a series of back
ports that include both NPN and ALPN together.
