Hi,

I've been able to get Crypt::SSleay to compile with SSLeay v8 and v9,
but I had to modify the source a bit to get it to work.  If you
want, I can hunt down my mod's that made it possible.

Assuming that OpenSSL is just the later version of SSLeay (?), 
what do you all think if I updated Crypt::SSLeay to use the new
libraries, call and call it Crypt::OpenSSL ?  I could have it mimic 
Crypt::SSLeay, so that LWP/Protocol https would hook into it
automatically.

???
