req. upgrade of openssl to allow sha256/512

2008-03-09 Thread stolendata.net 
I noticed that the bundled version of OpenSSL has not had a major update
for almost 2 years. Would it be possible to have the current 0.9.8 rev.
included for the 4.3 release in order to get access to SHA256/512/etc.
digestion? I've lately found that more and more software breaks on this
point when trying to compile under OBSD due 0.9.7's lack of said crypto.

It's a bit late to ask for anything for 4.3.

Let's hope this change (finally) makes it into 4.4 then - it's WELL needed.

And on that note, I'm just generally curious if anyone knows if there are some
things that need to be taken in consideration should I build and update
OpenSSL from the developers distribution? Specific path changes?
