I had no access to a windows build environment at the time (as many
python developers do not).  Apparently I neglected to bribe someone
who did to do it after I checked the module in. ;)

So is it worth my time doing this in a hurry for 2.5 or do other
people really just not care if python for windows uses a slow OpenSSL?

Widely deployed popular applications use python for both large scale
hashing and ssl communications.

If no, can this go in 2.5.1?  Its not an API change.
