Of course you are right about "openssl enc", this code does not use
PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC_SHA1(). This code use something between PBKDF1
and PBKDF2. My answer was rather about last question about:
"public interface where an application developer
can pass a password and as a result he becomes a password of the
specified length".
