------------------------ ------------------------
Shared library is currently an experimental feature. The only reason to
have them would be to conserve memory on systems where several program
are using OpenSSL. Binary backward compatibility can't be guaranteed
before OpenSSL version 1.0.
For some systems, the OpenSSL Configure script knows what is needed to For some systems, the OpenSSL Configure script knows what is needed to
