Maybe we could replace OpenSSL with gnutls?
 From the Changelog:
  * Replace in-house crypto code (md5, sha1, sha256 hashing algorithms)
with calls to OpenSSL. This makes OpenSSL a required dependency for the
engine.

I guess gnutls has quite similar functionality?
But I don't know, how difficult it would be to switch.

GnuTLS has a compatibility layer for OpenSSL [1]. Using this, it might be possible to simply switch the headers.
(We might get problems though: "Error handling is not thread safe.")

Best regards,
Andreas
