(I confess I've not actually tried that---I've only tried with an application built against 0.9.8h.) However, I guess (presuming the problem really exists, and I didn't mess up somehow) that's more a bug than a binary incompatibility. 0.9.8g (IIRC) broke source compatibility in the sense that at least some C++ compilers don't accept some of the headers. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
