Well, 0.9.8f is also rather ancient :-).

Anyway:

[simon at frankie:~] openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009
[simon at frankie:~] uname -a
FreeBSD frankie.nitro.dk 8.0-RC1 FreeBSD 8.0-RC1 #0: Thu Sep 17 20:45:19 UTC 2009     root at almeida.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

I also hope to MFC it to 7-stable, but I need to check that the ABI
and ABI is compatible first...
