I was very slow for updating the port for the last month or so
(vacation, etc.). I am now back in shape ;-)

Sure, if it something specific to FreeBSD, I can fix it in the port.
In any case, I gladly accept any feedback on the port.

Oops, I meant to fix this very problem in the port by patching Makefile,
but forgot to include it in the last-minute rush. :(
I haven't checked 1.2.2 yet.

We have a standard OpenSSL installation under FreeBSD (well, slightly
patched, of course). I am not sure why it does not support this option,
though. I am not an OpenSSL guy, frankly. I will try to look into this
but if somebody else knows what could be the problem, please let me
know.

Well, strangely enough, but OpenSSL as a part of FreeBSD does not
install any certificates. The only file in /etc/ssl is openssl.cnf.
That's why it would certainly benefit FreeBSD users if Binc IMAP port 
has an option to create certificates.
