I'll do my best to get it in.

Sounds fair.

No problems. I haven't looked at the patch yet but I will soon.  I am sort of
half out of action at the moment.  Just had a bad crash while cycling and so
my hours and typing speed are way down :-(  Hopefully back on top of it soon :-)

A lot of the OCF patch to opnssl has been included in 1.0 IIRC,  so that
should help,

Cheers,
