Prepare for a possibly dumb question. :-)

How are existing applications generally supposed to take advantage of
ENGINE?  I notice that in crypto/evp/c_all.c, there is an
OpenBSD-specific hook to enable the `cryptodev' engine.  This appears to
result in (naive, existing) applications using the `cryptodev' engine
whether they want to or not.

Is there some configuration infrastructure that can be used to affect
the behavior of existing OpenSSL-based applications with regard to the
use of ENGINE?  If not, should there be?  What is the direction here?

Cheers,
