Richard,

Oh my.  So, these patches have not been incorporated?  Will they ever get
incorporated?

We did not know these patches existed.  We've been chasing this problem for a
couple of years now.  Because we've never received response to postings with
regard to this problem, we felt we were on our own.

We WERE using 0.9.7d, when the problem arose.  I've submitted two patches, same
patch, but for 97m and 98e. (of course, the patches I've submitted only solve
OUR problem, and probably don't address the issue to the extent the patches
that have already been created)

As the existing patches do not fit directly into 97d and 98e (for 64 bit), I'm
not sure how to proceed.  Because of several platforms involved, in addition to
z/OS (OS390-Unix), we need to use these releases of OpenSSL for our new
release.

Any advice you might offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
John B. Young
