It is linked with GNU ld from binutils.

I thought that unicows had to be linked as the first library, so I
manually added -lunicows at the beginning of the LIBRARIES variable in
apps/Makefile, after Configure had completed.
You can see the gcc command for linking in the attached file
"linking_unicows.gcc". I also tried passing the --verbose option to ld by
adding -Wl,--verbose to CFLAGS. I think this also confirms unicows as
the first library. I am attaching an extract from the log as
"linking_unicows.details". Attempting to run the openssl.exe file as
openssl.exe version -a gives error messages similar to the previous one
I reported, attached as "version.unicows". Of interest, the executable
file doesn't show dependence on the unicows.dll. The dependencies on
system dll's are:
.\openssl.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\msvcrt.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\KERNEL32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ADVAPI32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\GDI32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\USER32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WS2_32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WS2HELP.dll

This seems to make the problems go away. With this commented out, the
application doesn't crash. Linking with libunicows does not appear
necessary. For openssl.exe version -a, see the attached file
"version.good".
The linking command from gcc is attached as "linking_good.gcc".
I am sending the files as attachments, since they have long lines and
might get corrupted in the mail.
Thanks for your help with this.
