Not necessarily.  I have no problems with hashlib or Python/M2Crypto/OpenSSL as 
long as I'm doing memory-oriented operations.  It is only when the function 
does I/O that errors occur.  ...like reading/writing a PEM file, randpool.dat, 
etc.

I'm probably missing something here.  Python 2.6/3.x uses OpenSSL for the 
hashlib and ssl modules.  Doesn't this mean that this applink.c file is part of 
the standard build now?
