In general. Linking GPLv2 and old OpenSSL license or new OpenSSL license is not 
allowed.

OpeNVPN has its own exception for allowing this linking and the author of LZO 
grants us to do the same for his library. Technically *we* don't need this 
exception on other platforms but anyone who builds/ships OpenVPN with LZO needs 
it, so it is better to have it documented in a place where people can point to.
