Sorry for hijacking this thread, are we going to import a new OpenSSL
release?  Sounds like we have to do a full package build if we want to
do that...

For both RELENG_6 and RELENG_7, not unless somebody comes up with very
strong arguments to do so.  The risk of blowing things up this late in
the release cycle is just to great.

The latest 0.9.8 security issue was fixed with patch rather than
complete new import to avoid disruptions to the 7.x release process.

My current plan is to import the new OpenSSL 0.9.8 release into HEAD
after 7.0 has been released, and them MFC to RELENG_7 if possble
later.

While I am here, I am wondering why we don't have openssl.pc import and install (maybe /usr/libdata/pkgconfig)? I think, OpenBSD does install openssl.pc. I think it would be nice if FreeBSD has openssl.pc too for I don't have to add hacks in ports tree to workaround of openssl.pc doesn't exist.

Cheers,
Mezz
