OK so what you mean is that if I link to the system-openssl and let the 
openldap package do his thing with openssl097 I could still keep the GPL label.

'interesting' discussion, I'm not big on license so it's great to see a 
practical question brought so much in its trail.
I think I will just Restrict the license and forget about the nitty gritty 
details for now, I have enough work on the claws branch to leave the religious 
side alone ;-)

... ultimately I don't think it matters since the sylphhed I would consider 
safe to include as binary in Fink distribution (if it is considered at some 
point obviously) would be the sll disabled version. That's purely because of 
what I use as source code for the respective versions.

@+ et bonne soiree!
