Re: Build openssl on HP with support for Standard C++ library

jebl> aCC or aC++ is HP's C++ compiler. The RogueWave Standard C++
jebl> Library 2.2.1 is bundled with HP aC++ 01.27. To use it you have

Aha.  I'm guessing that -AA also causes name-mangling (which is the
only known way to keep type info as part of the symbol, which is
needed when linking C++ programs, or function overloading would be
impossible).

jebl> Unfortunately objects and libraries compiled with -AA are binary
jebl> incompatible with objects and libraries compiled without -AA.

Name mangling...

You probably want to look at snapshots of 0.9.7-dev, that version has
a large number of changes having to do with exactly that problem.
