This is interesting. If we go with this and change from using lib{ssl,crypto}.so.0.9.8 to so.1.0.0, other packages could become broken, but probably not many as any modern autotooled package will look for open{ssl,crypto}.so.

I'm going to upgrade my box. I have a ton of stuff linked to libcrypto. I'm going to make compatibility symlinks and see if anything breaks. It should be a good test.

Doesn't look good. First package I installed after creating symlinks (Apache) had problems in configure when the pg_config program (from PostGreSQL, I believe) chokes on missing symbols.

Reverting back to 0.9.8.n.

Thank goodness for package management allowing me to easily install and remove a package multiple times.

Backing down to 0.9.8m and there are no problems with the pg_config program during Apache configuration. Full steam ahead.
