I will definitely check that.  I am right now in the process of
modifying inst_openssl to build OpenSSl 0.9.8e from tarball.
BTW, according to INSTALL.W32, libcrypto.a and libssl.a are static libraries,
whereas libssl32.a and libeay32.a can be used as import libraries.  I did not
have the time to verify that against the currently used 0.9.7c package,
but do we _plan_ to link statically?
