I originally thought my problem was with ssh, so that is what I was looking it, after I finally found that the problem was with the ssl, I sent the email to you. After that I did some more testing and found that by using the no-asm flag during the config everything worked normally.
I guess my point is that the ssl version 1.0.0h didn't exhibit the problem, a change in between the 1.0.0h and 1.0.1b did, So at this point I was just wanting to make you aware of the problem because I haven't had any problems with building openssl in quite some time. thanks for your reply.
