The potential problem with implementation defined is its not guaranteed to produce consistent results. Different compilers or different versions of the same compiler may arrive at different results. In this light, the crash might be welcomed to make it easy to find the trouble spot :) _______________________________________________ openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-users
