This actually brings up a question that I have been wondering about.
Is there a MSDOS compiler under which openssl builds other than DJGPP?
If so, which one and what applications have been built under it with
openssl? The patch I previously submitted for compiling under DJGPP
mostly got around the problem that the build procedure assumes that
the operating system can make use of symbolic links, which MSDOS
cannot. There is also an assumption that the system can run shell
scripts. DJGPP does this under a port of bash. How do other MSDOS
compilers handle this?
