Hey all, As part of the discussion going on about Mesa on devel@, the situation around OpenSSL was brought up, and Adam Williamson brought up that we might not need to hobble OpenSSL anymore[1]. A quick check seems to indicate we no longer do it for GnuTLS either, and haven't for many years[2]. Could we just drop all this stuff and use pristine OpenSSL sources? All the crypto algorithm usability stuff is controlled through crypto-policies, so I don't think it makes sense to do this anymore for OpenSSL since all the patents indicated in the script have expired for a couple of years now[3]. Dropping this will eliminate a chunk of cruft that nobody needs around anymore and simplify OpenSSL maintenance.
