Hi,

trying to build shared OpenSSL libraries for Win32 using MinGW within
the MSYS environment does not work, unfortunately. As of 0.9.7b, it
should be possible to use the standard Unix build way like

./Configure mingw shared

But, this gives the following warning:

You gave the option 'shared'.  Normally, that would give you shared libraries.
Unfortunately, the OpenSSL configuration doesn't include shared library support
for this platform yet, so it will pretend you gave the option 'no-shared'.  If
you can inform the developpers ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) how to support shared
libraries on this platform, they will at least look at it and try their best
(but please first make sure you have tried with a current version of OpenSSL).

But, it is possible to build the two .dll files using the "pre-0.9.7b"
way to build for Win32 using MinGW ("ms\mingw32"). Therefore, I would
like to ask if this is a known problem.

Best,
rob.
