Use the following for duplication of this issue:

1)  A default build of OpenSSL 0.9.7d for Windows.  Use MSVC++ 6 SP5 to
build it.

2)  A sample text file to encrypt using S/MIME (this example assumes the
text file's name is "test.txt").

3)  A sample certificate to encrypt the message with (this example assumes
the certificate's name is "test.pem").

Executing the following causes a fatal exception:

c:\openssl\bin\openssl.exe smime -encrypt -des3 -in test.txt test.pem


Credit goes to Kevin M. Goess for finding this bug.  Original message follows:
