I've looked at that code before I started off into mxCrypto. Pat's
approach uses pointers in the internal OpenSSL's data structure
as basis for doing the wrapping. Unfortunately, those pointers
seem to not work properly anymore in more recent versions of OpenSSL.

Also, he swigged the BIO and SSL parts in OpenSSL, mxCrypto takes
care of most of the crypto routines. X.509 and ASN.1 are not
handled in Pat's version.

Thanks for the tip anyway :-)
