Hi,

It may be useful to add the .pdb file to the lib directory in the install 
target. Windows build that adopt OpenSSL may benefit from it. When using 
ssleay32.lib and/or libeay32.lib then Visual Studio may complain about missing 
symbol information. That information is in the pdb file. If a pdb file is not 
provided, then Visual Studio will raise the following warning:

libeay32.lib(cryptlib.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'lib.pdb' was not found with 
'libeay32.lib(cryptlib.obj)' or at 'xyz\lib.pdb'; linking object as if no debug 
info.

Suggestion: change ms\nt.mak a little and add a line, similar to the following 
diff:

474c474
<
---
>       $(CP) "$(OBJ_D)\lib.pdb" "$(INSTALLTOP)\lib"

Regards,
Kees Dekker
