Another possibility you seem to have missed in your research is to
license an *independent* crypto library from a company that holds a PKP
license that allows it to sublicense it's "patent-dependent" code. <g>
Take AT&T for instance...
[WARNING: crass commercial plug] You can call the AT&T Security
Software sales desk at (800) 203-5563. Ask Ed Grace for info on
our "Rivest-Shamir-Adleman" Cryptographic Development Kits (CDKs)
or email a request for info to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Only the raw crypto primitives are provided, but the work required to
integrate them into OpenSSL or something similar should be minimal.
An alternative is to license the whole enchilada from Certicom --
certain of our CDKs are now bundled with Consensus' SSLPlus:
