OpenSSL tools are not installed

Hi,

I just had some issues with unvalidated certificates after the update of
the mail/fetchmail port.

The solution was to add the missing certificates manually, but that
involved running the c_rehash script, that currently isn't installed.

Of course, I could run it directly from src/crypto/openssl/tools/, but
that isn't an option for users that don't have the source installed.

So, is there a reaon why the scripts are not installed, or was it just
an oversight? From my (very limited) experience, c_rehash is enough, but
it might be usefull to have the others available, too. Of course, they
could be installed in /usr/share/openssl so /usr/bin is not spammed (but
of course this has the drawback that they aren't directly available to
users.

Opinions?
