Brief: A text mode FILE* will result in a binary BIO with BIO_set_fp.
Descr: This seems to make sense since BIO_set_fp also takes in text mode
flags along with the FILE*, but on the PEM_write_xx FILE* fns, there is no
way to set the text flag when passing in the FILE*. This has led to garbage
(bad newlines) certificates being generated under Win2K with a custom
certificate generation utility implemented with OpenSSL.
If the generated certs aren't used by a program that tries UNIX and MSDOS
newlines, this basically forces the developer to use the BIO routines
instead, making the write routines with FILE* useless.
