I'm trying to determine how to enable SSL communications with the BaseX server

I don't know if this helps, but I run BaseX listening only to "localhost" so that SSL isn't an issue (as a connection to localhost doesn't normally go over a network), and connect (on the same system) from PHP or Perl (!) or you can proxy via apache.

If BaseX is running on a different computer, you could also proxy on the system running BaseX e.g. with apache and .htaccess or the server conf & mod_rewrite. That way you'd use SSL to get to apache and then an in-memory connection from there to BaseX.
