Then perhaps you want to read the C standard's Rationale. There's a reason why some names are reserved to the library or implementation, and not all platforms behave the way you expect them to. This is one reason why I suggested my previous comment was quixotic. Adherence to the C standard, and to good practices with C code, don't appear to be high on the list for the typical OpenSSL user. In general, trying to get C programmers to actually follow the specification is a waste of time. So do what you like. -- Michael Wojcik Technology Specialist, Micro Focus This message has been scanned for malware by Websense. www.websense.com ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
