I had to make the following one-line change to socketmodule.c so that it would link properly with openssl-0.9.4. In studying the openssl include files, I found:

SSL_library_init() seems to be the "correct" call nowadays. I don't know why this isn't being picked up. I also don't know how well the module works, other than it imports, but I sure would like to try it with Zope/ZServer/Medusa...
Strange -- the version of OpenSSL I have also calls itself 0.9.4 ("OpenSSL 0.9.4 09 Aug 1999" to be precise) and doesn't have SSL_library_init().
I wonder what gives...
I don't know. Right after I made the patch, I found that 0.9.5 is available, and I was able to successfully compile against that version (with the patch). -- andy dustman | programmer/analyst | comstar.net, inc. telephone: 770.485.6025 / 706.549.7689 | icq: 32922760 | pgp: 0xc72f3f1d "Therefore, sweet knights, if you may doubt your strength or courage, come no further, for death awaits you all, with nasty, big, pointy teeth!"
