Oh, I see: It's because those parameters are passed on the command
line, not via the environment. Command line definitions override
those in the Makefile, while those passed in the environment are just
defaults that can be overridden from within the Makefile (unless the
"-e" switch is used, which is available at least in GNU make).
So I guess the definition in crypto/bn/Makefile.ssl is just there to
confuse people :-)
