Patch info for engine-4.x_doneill

Author Comments

Please find enclosed a patch I've tested on 4.04 .  It adds support for
OpenSSL engines.  Please note that I did not update the man page.

Files modified...
configure.ac To add the --enable-ssl-engine rule.
options.c
ssl.c
prototypes.h

Because I've modified the configure.ac script the user must run autoconf
(I used version 2.57) to generate the new configure file.  This adds a
new ./configure option --enable-ssl-engine which defines SSL_ENGINE.
This is required because the non engine version of OpenSSL-0.9.6 does
not include the engine header files.


OpenSSL versions 0.9.6(whatever) require an additional patch (to fix a
build bug), which is available at
http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/rt2/Ticket/Display.html?id=588 No patch
needed if you use the OpenSSL 0.9.7 branch.
