i agree about bloat, but it'd be a shame if we had to drop openssl
support like that. i guess this means another -devel thread needs
to be started :)

i think maybe we just ought to leave it as a wontfix bug for the
time being, and revisit it when there aren't as many higher
priority bugs to tackle.
