/me starts flame war...

It's up for a very esoteric debate if openssl is merely linked to as a
library installed separately on the system. However, as the original
rights holder in this case (Sun) already has code in their version of
this tree to link with openssl should it exist, it would be very hard to
argue that they find it a violation of their rights under the GPL for us
to also link against OpenSSL.

However...

Anybody checked to see if GNU TLS has a decent md5 impl?
