commit dfe3a3d0e2a989531cc8c83d82967d195b9d62cf
Author: Matt Caswell <m...@openssl.org>

    Remove FAQ about PKCS12 macros
    
    These were largely removed in OpenSSL 0.9.7 and replaced with functions
    and compatibility macros so this FAQ entry is no longer relevant.

-This usually happens when you try compiling something using the PKCS12
-macros with a C++ compiler. There is hardly ever any need to use the
-PKCS12 macros in a program, it is much easier to parse and create
-PKCS12 files using the PKCS12_parse(3)

-documented in doc/openssl.txt and with examples in demos/pkcs12. The
