a) On a vanilla/universal build we build static .as under Linux from openssl-0.9.8, i.e. libssl.a and libcrypto.o. b) liboox links against these .a's. The resulting .so by default exports the symbols of the .a which it used e.g.
nm -D workdir/unxlngx6/LinkTarget/Library/libooxlo.so|grep EVP_MD_CTX_create 0000000000666d00 T EVP_MD_CTX_create :-( c) now python's libssl.so, whether system or internal, will link against the system openssl. Looking at some debug output here, it appears to me that on email-merge (which goes out through python) we're screwed when liboox is dlopened before ssl.so is dlopened, seeing as liboox now exports its copies of the openssl-0.9.8 symbols and those ones win over the system openssl libs that the python ssl.so apparently needs to function happily. Is there a *easy* way to force the symbols of the .a to hidden visibility at oox link-time ?. Munging the openssl build itself would be painful, making a version-script would be painful, using objcopy or something sounds insane.
