This patch fixes CRLF problems in mk1mf.pl when using Cygwin Perl on a
Windows machine to generate Visual Studio project files for OpenSSL. The
symptom of these problems is errors like these:
' in macro519) : fatal error U1001: syntax error : illegal character
'
Stop.
or
NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make '.\\cryptlib.h'
Stop.
.. both of which users have reported in various places on the web.
Note that the patch is for 0.9.7c, but I suspect it will work on
virtually any existing version of this file.
