Is this my OpenSSL port?
If so, i did a tiny amount if research in this area. I basically read
that is says in the OpenSSL distribution about which parts of it are
covered by patents and licenses. I added CDL which made these parts
optionally compilable and by default disabled.
This is a start, but the standard IANAL disclaimer applies and you
should check for yourself.
