Yes, but this doesn't answer the question, what is the concern? That failure to compile OpenSSL with these flags would inhibit application code compiled with these flags (i.e. you'd fail to link or it would cause crashes)? It won't. That overall performance would be significantly worse? It won't. There is really no need to compile OpenSSL with them (and limit it to subclass of processors). But there is a way to add custom options, so feel free to add them on your own. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [email protected] Automated List Manager [email protected]
