Tim, No, it's not required at all. Compile with -DNO_IDEA and it's gone.

Is this the latest version around (it seems to be reasonably old, but they may not be a bad thing). Should I be looking anywhere else for a later version? Also, a specific question about the port: is there any reason why the IDEA encryption algorithm (which is patented) is required in order to enable the SSL API? Without SSL API I can't do anything, which sort of implies that I have to enable IDEA, but I don't want to use patented algorithms. Have I misunderstood something fundamental here?
