This should allow you to build/use OpenSSL as a simple library which the other modules link against, eliminating the need to load an API module before other modules. This actually seams like the more consistant approach anyway - modules shouldn't really rely on exported symbols from other modules. Check the nsthread/Makefile for an example. -Jim
