Well, is it enough to apply the following patch? I mean I looked through the
mentioned page but haven't understood clearly how we should compile padlock
engine  - static or shared. So I'm going to apply only one patch - it's in the
attachment because it was shrunk a bit. If the patch doesn't break the openssl
functionality I'll check in it in a day (after minimal preliminary checking).
