+- I did a cleanup of the internal generic SSL layer and how the various SSL
+ libraries are supported. Starting now, each underlying SSL library support
+ code does a set of defines for the 16 functions the generic layer (sslgen.c)
+ uses (all these new function defines use the prefix "curlssl_"). This
+ greatly simplified the generic layer in readability by involving much less
+ #ifdefs and other preprocessor stuff and should make it easier for people to
+ make libcurl work with new SSL libraries.
+
+ Hopefully I can later on document these 16 functions somewhat as well.
+
+ I also made most of the internal SSL-dependent functions (using Curl_ssl_
+ prefix) #defined to nothing when no SSL support is requested - previously
+ they would unnecessarily call mostly empty functions.
+
+ I've built libcurl with OpenSSL and GnuTLS and without SSL to test this and
+ I've also tried building with NSS but the NSS support is a mystery to me and
+ I failed to build libcurl with the NSS libraries I have installed. We really
+ should A) improve our configure script to detect unsuitable NSS versions
+ already at configure time and B) document our requirements better for the
+ SSL libraries.

- I made the OpenSSL code build again with OpenSSL 0.9.6. The CRLFILE
functionality killed it due to its unconditional use of
