As always, somebody may prove me wrong, but: OpenSSL should not use many
OS functions.
It uses several functions of the C library, but as long as the C library
conforms to the ANSI standard, you should have most of what is needed.
The only direct connection from OpenSSL to the OS is input/output (including
opening/closing/reading/writing of files and Network read/write) and
that one should not be critical.
