Its always nice to hear your not the only one.  I had this same problem
building 0.9.6a on OpenVMS 7.2 on a VAX w/ Multinet 4.3.  To get it to stop
I had to edit [.CRYPTO.MD5]MD5_DGST.C to comment out this line:
    const char *MD5_version="MD5" OPENSSL_VERSION_PTEXT;

I don't think it is a good answer, but it did compile after that and I'm up
and running OSU's webserver (ver 3.9) using it.

Hi,

I tried to build version 0.9.6 on an OpenVMS Alpha Operating System,
Version V7.1.

Having unpacked the openssl 0.9.6 tar ball.  I tried to build the package
in stages.

@MAKEVMS OPTION NORSAREF NODEBUG

config, buildinf, and softlink stages all went well.

The crypto library successfully built with one warning from the
compilation of BSS_LOG.C.  Then the build script started to build the
crypto applications.  The script got stuck in an infinite loop printing:

Compiling The PKCS7 Applications. (APPS,APPS)
        ENC.c
        DEC.c
        SIGN.c
        VERIFY.c
        EXAMPLE.c
        ENC.exe
%LINK-E-OUTSIMG, attempted store location %X000504E0 is outside image
binary (%X
00000000 to %X00000000)
        in psect MD5_VERSION module MD5_DGST file
$1$DKB300:[CDF.BELL.OPENSSL-0_9_6.VAX.EXE.CRYPTO]LIBCRYPTO.OLB;1


I killed the script execution and tried building the other executables
with similar errors resulting.  I seem to remember some limit on the
number of objects inside a library but I don't know how to get arround
this problem.  (A complete summary of the errors is attached to this
message.)

I am interested in running David Jones' SSH server for OpenVMS if I can
successfully compile the needed libraries.

Can anyone help?

Thanks and Best Regards,

Will
