Use virtual hosts in apache.  The same instance of apache can handle
both normal and ssl connections and route them to the same places.

The only place this will "break" in RT is where you need to hard-code
the base URL into the config.pm file.  You'll have to choose one or
the other.  Personally, I always access RT via SSL so I can do bug
tracking, and/or customer support securely from, say a wireless LAN at
a technical conference 3000 miles from home.
