I want to build the OpenSSL 1.0.1e distribution with the FIPS code from OpenSSL 
FIPS 2.0.2 distribution WITHOUT using the FIPS canister method and in-core 
fingerprint method described in the User Guide for the OpenSSL FIPS Object 
Module v2.0 document.

Maybe to say it another way, I would like to build the OpenSSL 1.0.1e 
distribution more in the style of the 0.9.8 FIPS implementation.

It looks like the code in openssl-fips-ecp-2.0.2/fips is equivalent (albeit 
updated) to the code in openssl-0.9.8y/fips.  So I made a "fips" directory in 
openssl-1.0.1e and copied the files from openssl-fips-ecp-2.0.2/fips into it.

But I'm not sure what to do with the code in openssl-fips-ecp-2.0.2/crypto?  Do 
I replace the corresponding files in openssl-1.0.1e with these files?

Obviously what I'm attempting to do renders the OSF OpenSSL FIPS certification 
invalid.  I understand that, and I have alternative plans in mind. Setting that 
issue aside, has anyone else attempted to do this?  Is there a documented 
procedure for this?

Thanks for any thoughts or ideas.
